NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in the nvdisasm binary, where a user could cause a NULL pointer exception by passing a malformed ELF file to nvdisasm. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
