Description

NVIDIA Jetson Linux Driver Package contains a vulnerability in the Cboot blob_decompress function, where insufficient validation of untrusted data may allow a local attacker with elevated privileges to cause a memory buffer overflow, which may lead to code execution, limited loss of Integrity, and limited denial of service. The scope of impact can extend to other components.
