Nvidia Drivers Security Vulnerability

[gmgrigsby21]

Nvidia has reported some pretty severe security vulnerabilities for their GPU Display Drivers here:

https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers ... /a_id/5586

I am wondering if any work is underway to get the latest drivers available in the Nvidia Driver Installer tool, to remediate these issues?

I currently have the latest driver installed that is shown in the Nvidia Driver installer, but is definitely way behind current release drivers reported by Nvidia.

Code: Select all

Distribution:   MX

Latest  = 535.183.01
Detected NVIDIA GPUs:
09:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU106 [GeForce RTX 2060 Rev. A] [10de:1f08] (rev a1)

Checking card:  NVIDIA Corporation TU106 [GeForce RTX 2060 Rev. A] (rev a1)
Your card is supported by the nvidia tesla 470 drivers series. nvidia-tesla-470-driver
Your card is supported by the nvidia 535.183.01 drivers series. nvidia-driver

It is recommended to install the following:
INSTALL:  nvidia-driver

To install alternate driver packages, use sudo ddm-mx -i nvidia -f [driver package name]

Apologies if I did this incorrectly, but this is not code but Output from the Nvidia Driver Installer.

That is code. Output, anything terminal like.

Updated the original post.

Again, my apologies for posting the screenshot instead of code.

It appears the only fixed debian bookworm nvidia driver is 525.147.05-7~deb12u1
The 535 driver is fixed in unstable but hasn't yet been moved to testing.
