CVE-2021-1053 [HIGH] Linux kernel update
Title: Linux kernel update
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in NVIDIA graphics drivers.
USN-4689-3 fixed vulnerabilities in the NVIDIA server graphics drivers.
This update provides the corresponding updates for the NVIDIA Linux
DKMS kernel modules.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that the NVIDIA GPU display driver for the Linux kernel
contained a vulnerability that allowed user-mode clients to access legacy
privileged APIs. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of
service or escalate privileges. (CVE-2021-1052)
It was discovered that the NVIDIA GPU display driver for the Linux kernel
did not properly validate a pointer received from userspace in some
situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
