Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the kernel mode layer of the GPU display driver and allows an out-of-bounds write triggered by an unprivileged user without requiring special privileges or network access. Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation to kernel level, or denial of service; the driver should be updated to the patched version.
