Privilege escalation security hole found in Nvidia Linux driver
Summary: A new security hole has been discovered in Nvidia's Linux driver. Nvidia has allegedly known about the vulnerability for more than a month but has yet to fix it.
The flaw essentially allows an attacker to write to any part of memory on the system by shifting the VGA window after attaining superuser privileges.
