What it is stated by the CNA
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvlddmkm.sys) handler for DxgkDdiEscape, where an unprivileged regular user can cause exposure of sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information, which may lead to limited information disclosure.

What would change this brief held, dated
- CISA KEV
- Not listed in the catalogue we hold. A listing changes this brief.
- exploit probability

- fix
- Held: virtual gpu 11.11; virtual gpu 13.6; virtual gpu 14.4; cloud gaming 527.27. A newer fix from the CNA or OSV changes this brief.
How to check this
Every value above is held with two dates: when it was true upstream (as_of) and when we recorded it (tx_from). Re-derive the exploit probability as it stood on any date:
SELECT value, source, source_version, as_of, tx_from
FROM volatile_valid_as_of('CVE-2022-42266', '2026-11-01T23:59:59.999999Z', now());
