CVE-2026-47579 [HIGH] CWE-825 nvidia-driver: nvidia-driver: arbitrary code execution via use-after-free in kernel mode driver
nvidia-driver: nvidia-driver: arbitrary code execution via use-after-free in kernel mode driver
A flaw was found in the NVIDIA GPU Display Driver. A local user can trigger a use-after-free condition in the kernel mode driver, where the system accesses memory after it has already been released. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, unauthorized data tampering, information disclosure, or a denial of service (DoS).
