Details
A vulnerability classified as very critical has been found in NVIDIA GeForce, RTX, Quadro, NVS, Tesla and Guest driver. This affects an unknown part of the component Kernel Mode Layer. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where a user could cause exposure of kernel stack contents including return addresses and pointers. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering.
This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2026-47514 since 05/19/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. Attacking locally is a requirement.
