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 has released a software security update for the NVIDIA GPU Display     Driver R390 linux driver branch. This update addresses issues that may lead to     denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, data     tampering or undefined behavior.


    CVE-2022-34670

        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-2022-34674

        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-2022-34675

        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-2022-34677

        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-2022-34680

        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-2022-42257

        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-2022-42258

        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, data tampering, or information disclosure.

    CVE-2022-42259

        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.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     390.157-1~deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-390xx packages.
