NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the Virtual GPU Manager, where it does not check the return value from a null-pointer dereference, which may lead to denial of service.

The NVIDIA Virtual GPU Manager software on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an     unprivileged regular user can cause truncation errors when casting a primitive to a primitive of smaller     size causes data to be lost in the conversion, which may lead to denial of service or information     disclosure. (CVE-2022-34670)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where an     unprivileged regular user can cause the use of an out-of-range pointer offset, which may lead to data     tampering, data loss, information disclosure, or denial of service. (CVE-2022-42264)

  - NVIDIA vGPU software contains a vulnerability in the Virtual GPU Manager (vGPU plugin), where an input     index is not validated, which may lead to buffer overrun, which in turn may cause data tampering,     information disclosure, or denial of service. (CVE-2022-42262)   Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3418 advisory.

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an     unprivileged regular user can cause truncation errors when casting a primitive to a primitive of smaller     size causes data to be lost in the conversion, which may lead to denial of service or information     disclosure. (CVE-2022-34670)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where a     helper function maps more physical pages than were requested, which may lead to undefined behavior or an     information leak. (CVE-2022-34674)

  - NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the Virtual GPU Manager, where it does not     check the return value from a null-pointer dereference, which may lead to denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-34675)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an     unprivileged regular user can cause an integer to be truncated, which may lead to denial of service or     data tampering. (CVE-2022-34677)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an     integer truncation can lead to an out-of-bounds read, which may lead to denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-34680)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvidia.ko), where     an integer overflow may lead to information disclosure, data tampering or denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-42257)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvidia.ko), where     an integer overflow may lead to denial of service, data tampering, or information disclosure.
    (CVE-2022-42258)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvidia.ko), where     an integer overflow may lead to denial of service. (CVE-2022-42259)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
