Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS : NVIDIA graphics drivers vulnerabilities (USN-5547-1)

high Nessus Plugin ID 163829

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5547-1 advisory.

 Le Wu discovered that the NVIDIA graphics drivers did not properly perform input validation in some situations. A local user could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2022-31607)

 Tal Lossos discovered that the NVIDIA graphics drivers incorrectly handled certain memory operations, leading to a null-pointer dereference. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
 (CVE-2022-31615)

 Artem S. Tashkinov discovered that the NVIDIA graphics drivers Dynamic Boost D-Bus component did not properly restrict access to its endpoint. When enabled in non-default configurations, a local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-31608)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
