- GeForce 376.33 drivers fix 7 vulnerabilities
- If you have the previous drivers, you have to update them now
If you don't normally update the graphics card drivers and you have an NVIDIA, we recommend that you do so as soon as possible. So at this time we recommend you update the drivers to the latest version GeForce 376.33 WHQL. The reason is, because this version fixes 7 security flaws that existed to date, so if you want to be free of the vulnerabilities of the previous versions of NVIDIA drivers, the only way to achieve this is by updating (we leave you the link download at the end of the article).
Some of these vulnerabilities are related to denial of service attacks or escalation of privileges, so they are quite important bugs that you must solve as soon as possible to avoid leaving doors open. Before, using the kernel (nvlddmkm.sys) we were subject to very dangerous vulnerabilities. But now everything has been solved with the update.
GeForce 376.33 drivers fix 7 vulnerabilities
We have been stunned because a total of 7 vulnerabilities have been found that NVIDIA has recognized, and that has been due to the help of Google Project Zero and Cisco Talos. They have worked as a team to find and fix all these vulnerabilities found in graphics drivers.
You can see the release notes yourself from here. Although NVIDIA yesterday launched the GeForce 376.33 WHQL graphics drivers, at the time the only news seemed to be related to disabling the SLI profile in the game Titanfall 2, which was giving performance problems to many users on various GPUs, but no, because it goes a lot beyond.
Hours after the launch of these drivers, we have known for a fact that it is very important to update the drivers as soon as possible, because they correct 7 important vulnerabilities that were completely unknown.
If you have the previous drivers, you have to update them now
It is very important that you now update the drivers to correct these 7 NVIDIA vulnerabilities, and have a more secure computer. Now update the drivers to the GeForce 376.33 WHQL version !! It is very important that you update as soon as possible. You can download the drivers from the following link:
