Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: bullseye User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu
[ Reason ]
We need to update src:nvidia-graphics-drivers in bullseye to a new
upstream release fixing a few new CVEs.
There are a few dependency fixes and several changelog updates resulting
from resynchronizing the supported driver branches.
[ Impact ]
A proprietary grpahics driver with open CVEs.
[ Tests ]
Only building the module can e tested without using nvidia hardware and
driver.
[ Risks ]
Updating (old)stable to new upstream releases from the same branch has
been done in the past (and at least once for the current point release).
[ Checklist ]
[*] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[*] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
(excluding the blobs)
[*] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
(excluding the blobs)
[*] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
+ * New upstream LTS and Tesla branch release 470.256.02 (2024-06-04).
+ * Fixed CVE-2024-0090, CVE-2024-0092. (Closes: #1072792)
+ https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5551
+ - Fixed a bug that could cause the X server to crash when graphics
+ applications requested single-buffered drawables while certain
+ features (such as Vulkan sharpening) are enabled.
+
+ [ Andreas Beckmann ]
+ * Refresh patches.
+ * xserver-xorg-video-nvidia: Recommend nvidia-vulkan-icd.
+ * Move the libnvidia-glvkspirv dependency to libnvidia-(e)glcore.
+ (Cf. #1064194)
+ * Bump Standards-Version to 4.7.0. No changes needed.
[ Other info ]
This package is nearly equivalent to
src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470 in sid/bookworm/bullseye.
The package has already been accepted, but associated with the wrong
bullseye-pu request: #1072965 for src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470
(which is a nearly identical package with nearly identical changes)
since I seem to have missed to file this PU request while uploading.
Fortunately we'll get rid of similar package duplication in bookworm
in the upcoming point release (which makes
src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla transitional).
