Synopsis

The version of NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit installed on the remote host is affected by a multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit installed on the remote host is prior to 12.1 Update 1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in cuobjdump, where an attacker may cause an out-of-bounds read by tricking a user into running cuobjdump on a malformed input file. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to limited denial of service, code execution, and limited information disclosure. (CVE-2023-25514)

 - NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in cuobjdump, where a division-by-zero error may enable a user to cause a crash, which may lead to a limited denial of service. (CVE-2023-25511)

 - NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit SDK for Linux and Windows contains a NULL pointer dereference in cuobjdump, where a local user running the tool against a malformed binary may cause a limited denial of service.
 (CVE-2023-25510)

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

Solution

Upgrade to NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 12.1 Update 1 or later.
