**What actions do customers need to take to protect themselves from this vulnerability?** Customers with Ubuntu Linux or Azure Linux based Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) Node Pools using NVIDIA GPU driver configurations are affected by this vulnerability. Please see below for details on how to update your resources to be protected against this vulnerability. 1. Customers with Azure Linux based AKS Node Pool resources must manually install AKS Node image version 2024.1009.1 to be protected against this vulnerability by running the following CLI command: tdnf install https://packages.microsoft.com/cbl-mariner/2.0/prod/base/x86_64/Packages/n/nvidia-container-toolkit-1.16.2-1.cm2.x86_64.rpm **Note:** The AKS node image, version 20241009.1, will be deployed in November and contain this package by default. Customers can monitor the status of this deployment by using AKS Release Tracker. 2. Customers with Ubuntu Linux based AKS Node Pool resources must manually upgr...

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could create or delete files in the security context of the “NT AUTHORITY\\ LOCAL SERVICE” account.

**What does the security update provide to mitigate the risks associated with this vulnerability?** The security update will prevent untrusted Microsoft Saved Console (MSC) files from being opened to protect customers against the risks associated with this vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an unauthenticated attacker would need to send malformed packets to a RPC host. This could result in remote code execution on the server side with the same permissions as the RPC service.
