NVIDIA GPU display driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where referencing memory after it has been freed can lead to denial of service or data tampering.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - NVIDIA GPU display driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where referencing memory after it     has been freed can lead to denial of service or data tampering. (CVE-2024-0147)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

A display driver installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

  - NVIDIA GPU display driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where data is written past the end or     before the beginning of a buffer. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to information disclosure,     denial of service, or data tampering. (CVE-2024-0150)

  - NVIDIA GPU display driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where referencing memory after it has been     freed can lead to denial of service or data tampering. (CVE-2024-0147)

  - NVIDIA GPU kernel driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where a potential user-mode attacker could     read a buffer with an incorrect length. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service.
    (CVE-2024-0131)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the driver's self-reported version number.
