nvidia-driver: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia: nvidia-driver: Privilege escalation via crafted RPC in Virtual GPU Manager
A flaw was found in the NVIDIA Virtual GPU (vGPU) Manager within the NVIDIA GPU Display Driver. A user within a guest virtual machine (VM) can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted Remote Procedure Call (RPC) request to the host system, causing an out-of-bounds memory write. A successful exploit may allow the guest user to achieve privilege escalation, tamper with host data, or trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) condition on the host.
