CVE-2026-47599 [HIGH] CWE-281 nvidia: nvidia: Privilege escalation via improper memory permissions during DMA mapping
nvidia: nvidia: Privilege escalation via improper memory permissions during DMA mapping
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the open-source kernel module where an unprivileged local user could cause improper preservation of memory access permissions during DMA mapping. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, escalation of privileges, denial of service, information disclosure, and data tampering.
A flaw was found in the NVIDIA GPU Display Driver open-source kernel module. An unprivileged local attacker can exploit improper preservation of memory access permissions during Direct Memory Access (DMA) mapping, which controls how the graphics hardware accesses system memory. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to achieve
