NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver (nvlddmkm.sys): Untrusted array index used in the escape handler: an unprivileged

CVE-2019-5692NVIDIA / GPU stackcurated

Impact

Untrusted array index used in the escape handler: an unprivileged process indexes kernel memory of its choosing.

Who can reach it

Any local user with GPU device access.

What to do

Install the fixed Windows GPU Display Driver branch listed in the NVIDIA bulletin. nvlddmkm.sys is a kernel driver: the swap needs a host reboot, so on a Windows GPU node this is a drain-and-reboot, not a live driver reload. No VBIOS or BMC flash involved.
