Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.18.2.2024.2585.1
Category:openSUSE Local Security Checks
Title:openSUSE Security Advisory (SUSE-SU-2024:2585-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2024:2585-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2024:2585-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
This update for kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06 fixes the following issues:

Update to version 555.42.06 for CUDA.

Security Update 550.90.07:

- CVE-2024-0090: Fixed out of bounds write (bsc#1223356).
- CVE-2024-0092: Fixed incorrect exception handling (bsc#1223356).
- CVE-2024-0091: Fixed untrusted pointer dereference (bsc#1223356).

Changes in kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06:

- Update to 550.100 (bsc#1227575)

- Add a second flavor to be used by the kernel module versions
used by CUDA. The firmware targetting CUDA contains '-cuda' in
its name to track its versions separately from the graphics
firmware. (bsc#1227417)

Changes in nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed:

- Update to 550.100 (bsc#1227575)

* Fixed a bug that caused OpenGL triple buffering to behave like
double buffering.

- To avoid issues with missing dependencies when no CUDA repo
is present make the dependecy to nvidia-compute-G06 conditional.

- CUDA is not available for Tumbleweed, exclude the build of the
cuda flavor.

- preamble: let the -cuda flavor KMP require the -cuda flavor
firmware

- Add a second flavor for building the kernel module versions
used by CUDA. The kmp targetting CUDA contains '-cuda' in
its name to track its versions separately from the graphics
kmp. (bsc#1227417)
- Provide the meta package nv-prefer-signed-open-driver to
make sure the latest available SUSE-build open driver is
installed - independent of the latest available open driver
version in he CUDA repository.
Rationale:
The package cuda-runtime provides the link between CUDA and
the kernel driver version through a
Requires: cuda-drivers >= %version
This implies that a CUDA version will run withany kernel driver
version equal or higher than a base version.
nvidia-compute-G06 provides the glue layer between CUDA and
a specific version of he kernel driver both by providing
a set of base libraries and by requiring a specific kernel
version. 'cuda-drivers' (provided by nvidia-compute-utils-G06)
requires an unversioned nvidia-compute-G06. With this, the
resolver will install the latest available and applicable
nvidia-compute-G06.
nv-prefer-signed-open-driver then represents the latest available
open driver version and restricts the nvidia-compute-G06 version
to it. (bsc#1227419)

Affected Software/OS:
'kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06' package(s) on openSUSE Leap 15.6.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
