nvidia-driver: nvidia-driver: Arbitrary code execution via type confusion in the NGX updater
A flaw was found in nvidia-driver. The driver's NGX updater relies on an outdated embedded cryptographic library that is susceptible to type confusion, an issue where data of one type is incorrectly treated as another. A local attacker with low privileges can exploit this vulnerability to achieve arbitrary code execution, trigger a denial of service (DoS), or access and modify sensitive system data.
