The security bulletin issued on 10-22-2024 states that all GeForce Windows drivers prior to 566.03 are vulnerable to a range of CVEs:

Although there is a GeForce Game Ready 566.03 Windows driver available, the most recent Studio driver is 565.90 which is still vulnerable according to the bulletin.

Many companies in Animation and Visual Effects rely on the GeForce Studio drivers since those are the ones certified by the ISVs providing the applications used in that industry (for instance Autodesk Maya).

Is there a timeframe for a release of a GeForce Windows Studio Driver which addresses these CVEs?

Welcome both @panisset and @instinctvfx to the NVIDIA developer forums.

Usually this is more of a consumer side question which rarely comes up here in the developer forums.

Nevertheless both driver versions have now been updated to 566.14, that should address your concerns.

Thanks!
