CVE-2026-47533: CWE-129 Improper Validation of Array Index in NVIDIA GeForce
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer where an attacker could cause an improper validation of an array index. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in NVIDIA GeForce drivers arises from improper validation of an array index in the kernel mode layer. This flaw could be exploited to achieve multiple impacts including code execution, denial of service, privilege escalation, information disclosure, and data tampering. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates the attack requires local access with low complexity and high privileges, no user interaction, and impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available to confirm remediation status.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering on affected systems running NVIDIA GeForce drivers. The attack requires local access with high privileges. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict local access to trusted users with high privileges to reduce risk.
