CVE-2016-7385: For the NVIDIA Quadro, NVS, and GeForce products, NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver R340 before 342.00 and...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a Windows NVIDIA display driver flaw affecting Quadro, NVS, and GeForce driver branches R340 and R375 before the fixed versions. A local user-controlled value can be mishandled in kernel driver code, causing denial of service or possible privilege escalation. Exposure is most likely on Windows systems with NVIDIA Quadro, NVS, or GeForce products running R340 drivers before 342.00 or R375 drivers before 375.63. The bundle does not identify non-Windows exposure. Treat this as a high-priority legacy driver cleanup issue, especially on shared workstations, engineering systems, kiosks, or environments with many local users. It is less urgent than a confirmed remotely exploited bug, but public exploit material and potential kernel privilege escalation justify prompt remediation. Mitigation focus: Update NVIDIA R340 drivers to 342.00 or later where applicable.; Update NVIDIA R375 drivers to 375.63 or later where applicable.; Check NVIDIA and Lenovo advisories for model-specific driver guidance..
