high Nessus Plugin ID 174018

Synopsis

A GPU virtualization application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

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 a kernel mode layer handler, where memory permissions are not correctly checked, which may lead to denial of service and data tampering. (CVE-2023-0181)

- NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer where an out-of-bounds write can lead to denial of service and data tampering. (CVE-2023-0183)

- NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where sign conversion issues may lead to denial of service or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-0185) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the NVIDIA vGPU Manager software in accordance with the vendor advisory.
