"The NVIDIA GPU display driver software on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an
    unprivileged regular user can cause truncation errors when casting a primitive to a primitive of smaller
    size causes data to be lost in the conversion, which may lead to denial of service or information
    disclosure. (CVE-2022-34670)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an
    out-of-bounds read may lead to denial of service, information disclosure, or data tampering.
    (CVE-2022-34676)

  - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an
    Integer overflow may lead to denial of service or information disclosure. (CVE-2022-42263)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
