Details
A vulnerability was found in NVIDIA Stereoscopic 3D driver R340/R352/R358 on Windows (Hardware Driver Software). It has been classified as problematic. This affects some unknown functionality of the file nvSCPAPISvr.exe. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a access control vulnerability (Stored). CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-284. The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
nvSCPAPISvr.exe in the Stereoscopic 3D Driver Service in the NVIDIA GPU graphics driver R340 before 341.92, R352 before 354.35, and R358 before 358.87 on Windows does not properly restrict access to the stereosvrpipe named pipe, which allows local users to gain privileges via a commandline in a number 2 command, which is stored in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE explorer Run registry key, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-4784.
The weakness was published 11/24/2015 as 515 (Website). The advisory is shared at code.google.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2015-7865 since 10/19/2015. An attack has to be approached locally. A authentication is required for exploitation. Technical details and a public exploit are known. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1068 for this issue.
A public exploit has been developed by Google Security Research and been published before and not just after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at exploit-db.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 87412 (NVIDIA Graphics Driver 340.x < 341.92 / 352.x < 354.35 / 358.x < 358.87 Multiple Vulnerabilities), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Windows and running in the context l.
Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published before and not just after the disclosure of the vulnerability.
The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at Exploit-DB (38792), Tenable (87412), SecurityFocus (BID 83873†) and Vulnerability Center (SBV-54820†).
