NVIDIA fixes ten vulnerabilities in Windows GPU display drivers
2022-05-17 19:12

NVIDIA has released a security update for a wide range of graphics card models, addressing four high-severity and six medium-severity vulnerabilities in its GPU drivers.

The security update fixes vulnerabilities that can lead to denial of service, information disclosure, elevation of privileges, code execution, etc.

The GPU maker previously promised to continue providing critical security updates for these products until September 2024, and this driver update honors that promise.

These vulnerabilities require low privileges and no user interaction, so they could be incorporated into malware, allowing attackers to execute commands with higher privileges.

For more details on all of the fixes and every software and hardware product covered this month, check out NVIDIA's security bulletin.

Users can download the latest driver for their GPU model from NVIDIA's download central section, where they can select the specific product and OS they are using.
