It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-1052 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Nvidia Gpu Driver. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-1052/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-1052/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-1052","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-1052/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-1052","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2021-1052","GHSA-4qmf-j7f2-r929","UBUNTU-CVE-2021-1052"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NVIDIA GPU Driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"User-mode clients can access privileged APIs in the NVIDIA GPU driver kernel layer, leading to privilege escalation, denial of service, and information disclosure.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nvidia","cpe":[{"product":"gpu_driver","vendor":"nvidia"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux, all versions, contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvlddmkm.sys) handler for DxgkDdiEscape or IOCTL in which user-mode clients can access legacy privileged APIs, which may lead to denial of service, escalation of privileges, and information disclosure.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Privilege escalation in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2021-1052","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"nvidia:gpu_driver","products":["nvidia:gpu_driver"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2021-1053"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2021-1051"},"products":["NVIDIA GPU Display Driver"],"published":"2021-01-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2019-5684","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-06"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5053","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-5986","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2019-5685","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Null dereference in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2018-6247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2018-6248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Null dereference in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2018-6249","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["NVIDIA"]},"summary":"User-mode clients can access privileged APIs in the NVIDIA GPU driver kernel layer, leading to privilege escalation, denial of service, and information disclosure.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-1052/"}
