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-2022-21813 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Nvidia Gpu Display 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-2022-21813/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-21813/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-21813","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-21813/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-21813","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-21813","GHSA-j78x-pc9w-6w5v","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-21813"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NVIDIA GPU Driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local user can gain limited write access to protected memory, leading to denial of service and potential privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nvidia","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_gaming_guest","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"geforce","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"gpu_display_driver","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"nvs","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"quadro","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"rtx","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"tesla","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"virtual_gpu","vendor":"nvidia"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-755","name":"Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions"},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel driver, where improper handling of insufficient permissions or privileges may allow an unprivileged local user limited write access to protected memory, which can lead to denial of service.","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-2022-21813","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"nvidia:gpu_display_driver","products":["nvidia:gpu_display_driver","nvidia:virtual_gpu"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2022-21814"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) HAXM software","id":"CVE-2022-21812"},"products":["NVIDIA GPU Display Driver"],"published":"2022-02-07","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-31606","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)","id":"CVE-2022-31607","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-31610","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-31617","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-31612","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Null dereference in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-31613","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Null dereference in NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)","id":"CVE-2022-34665","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-18"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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":"An unprivileged local user can gain limited write access to protected memory, leading to denial of service and potential privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-21813/"}
