Technical details
A CPU-managed memory buffer accessed by GPU firmware can be freed prematurely through improper GPU system calls initiated by non-privileged users. The attacker can then allocate a replacement buffer and redirect the GPU's shared resource pointer (memory page address list), causing the GPU to access arbitrary physical memory not managed by the driver. This results in arbitrary read/write access to physical memory pages.
