Notes


mdeslaur

upstream advisory says vulnerability is present since 195.22 fixed in 304.88, 310.44, 313.30 We aren't going to fix the experimental drivers. Users of the experimental drivers for who this issue is important are recommended to switch to production drivers. Doesn't actually affected nvidia-settings and nvidia-settings-updates. Updates are simply required for compatibility reasons.
