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-2022-42255 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Nvidia Virtual Gpu. 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-2022-42255/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-42255/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-42255","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-42255/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-42255","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-42255","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-42255"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NVIDIA GPU Driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An out-of-bounds array access in the NVIDIA Linux GPU driver kernel module allows attackers to cause denial of service, disclose information, or tamper with data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nvidia","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_gaming","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"virtual_gpu","vendor":"nvidia"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-129","name":"Improper Validation of Array Index"},{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvidia.ko), where an out-of-bounds array access may lead to denial of service, information disclosure, or data tampering.","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":"Memory corruption in vGPU software (guest driver) - Linux, vGPU software (Virtual GPU Manager), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)","id":"CVE-2022-42255","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"nvidia:virtual_gpu","products":["nvidia:virtual_gpu"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in vGPU software (guest driver) - Linux, vGPU software (Virtual GPU Manager), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)","id":"CVE-2022-42256"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in vGPU software (guest driver) - Linux, vGPU software (Virtual GPU Manager), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)","id":"CVE-2022-42254"},"products":["vGPU software (guest driver) - Linux, vGPU software (Virtual GPU Manager), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver), NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (Virtual GPU Manager)"],"published":"2022-12-30","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in vGPU software (guest driver) - Windows, NVIDIA Cloud Gaming (guest driver)","id":"CVE-2022-34669","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-30"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in GPU Display Driver, vGPU Software, Cloud Gaming","id":"CVE-2024-0107","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"CVE","id":"CVE-2024-0084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"CVE","id":"CVE-2024-0089","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"CVE","id":"CVE-2024-0090","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"CVE","id":"CVE-2024-0091","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux","id":"CVE-2023-25515","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-23"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-23","vendors":["NVIDIA"]},"summary":"An out-of-bounds array access in the NVIDIA Linux GPU driver kernel module allows attackers to cause denial of service, disclose information, or tamper with data.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-42255/"}
