Unchecked Resource Init. in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver
CVE-2026-47600 Published on September 30, 2026
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer where an error-handling path could operate on an improperly initialized resource. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, escalation of privileges, denial of service, information disclosure, and data tampering.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2026-47600 is exploitable with local system access, and requires small amount of user privileges. This vulnerability is considered to have a low attack complexity. The potential impact of an exploit of this vulnerability is considered to be very high.
Weakness Type
Use of Uninitialized Resource
The software uses or accesses a resource that has not been initialized. When a resource has not been properly initialized, the software may behave unexpectedly. This may lead to a crash or invalid memory access, but the consequences vary depending on the type of resource and how it is used within the software.
