three vulnerabilities in the Windows display drivers
for the company’s GeForce, Quadro and Tesla graphics cards. If exploited, the vulnerabilities could lead to denial of service, escalation of privileges or information disclosure on the host machines. Two of the vulnerabilities have a high -severity rating while the third is medium severity. If a denial of service attack is executed, the computer would become unusable while the attacker could execute commands on the system or unleash malicious code.
