NVIDIA GPU Display Driver OOB Read in Kernel Module (CVE-2026-47576)
CVE-2026-47576 Published on September 30, 2026
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows contains a vulnerability in the kernel module through which an attacker might initiate an out-of-bounds read. Successful exploitation of this issue could lead to denial of service and information disclosure.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2026-47576 is exploitable with local system access, and does not require authorization privileges or user interaction. This vulnerability is considered to have a low attack complexity. The potential impact of an exploit of this vulnerability is considered to have a high impact on confidentiality, with no impact on integrity, and a high impact on availability.
Weakness Type
Out-of-bounds Read
The software reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer. Typically, this can allow attackers to read sensitive information from other memory locations or cause a crash. A crash can occur when the code reads a variable amount of data and assumes that a sentinel exists to stop the read operation, such as a NUL in a string. The expected sentinel might not be located in the out-of-bounds memory, causing excessive data to be read, leading to a segmentation fault or a buffer overflow. The software may modify an index or perform pointer arithmetic that references a memory location that is outside of the boundaries of the buffer. A subsequent read operation then produces undefined or unexpected results.
