Published: 12 April 2016

The Escape interface in the Kernel Mode Driver layer in the NVIDIA GPU graphics driver R340 before 341.95 and R352 before 354.74 on Windows allows local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (crash), or gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to an untrusted pointer, which trigger uninitialized or out-of-bounds memory access.
