All versions of NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver contain a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvlddmkm.sys) handler for DxgDdiEscape where a check on a function return value is missing, potentially allowing an uninitialized value to be used as the source of a strcpy() call, leading to denial of service or information disclosure.
