CVE-2017-0350
HighSummary
All versions of the NVIDIA GPU Display Driver contain a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler where a value passed from a user to the driver is not correctly validated. This may lead to denial of service or potential escalation of privileges.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability may allow attackers to remotely trigger denial of service or gain elevated privileges in the system, posing a serious security threat to the organization.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update the NVIDIA GPU driver to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability and implement system monitoring to detect unauthorized privilege escalation attempts.
