Shulou(Shulou.com)05/31 Report--

AMD disclosed 27 vulnerabilities in its Radeon graphics card driver on Tuesday, 18 of which are serious. But don't worry, AMD has reduced each of them in the latest driver versions, which should be as good as any reminder to update the video driver regularly.

A large number of potential vulnerabilities or vulnerabilities disclosed on the AMD secure website affect Windows 10's AMD graphics card driver. If not patched, these can lead to privilege escalation, denial of service, information theft, or kernel access vulnerabilities.

AMD has introduced mitigation measures for version 20.7.1 drivers, and drivers after version 21.4.1 will include all relevant bug fixes. We are using driver version 21.11.2 today, which keeps any regularly updated PC away from these vulnerabilities.

Security researcher Ori Nimron has brought a large number of these published vulnerabilities to the attention of AMD. Eran Shimony of Cyber ​​ Ark Labs, a cyber security research firm, found one, while driverThru_BoB 9th found another.

Apple Media Products RedTeam's Lucas Bouillot has also found one, whose role seems to be directly related to the continued collaboration between Apple and AMD on some products with high-end independent graphics cards.

As The Register reports, Intel has also discovered some new vulnerabilities in its software stack, including one for its own graphics driver. In this case, Intel recommends upgrading to the latest version, once again promoting the benefits of regular updates.

Not to mention that new updates usually provide better performance in the latest games.
