Summary

NVIDIA Virtual GPU Manager contains a vulnerability in the vGPU plugin and the host driver kernel module, in which the potential exists to write to a memory location that is outside the intended boundary of the frame buffer memory allocated to guest operating systems, which may lead to denial of service or information disclosure. This affects vGPU version 8.x (prior to 8.5), version 10.x (prior to 10.4) and version 11.0.
