nvidia-graphics-drivers (304.88-0ubuntu0.0.2) precise-security; urgency=low
* SECURITY UPDATE: ARGB Cursor Buffer Overflow in "NoScanout" Mode
- CVE-2013-0131
* New upstream release
- Fixed CVE-2013-0131:
NVIDIA UNIX GPU Driver ARGB Cursor Buffer Overflow in
"NoScanout" Mode. This buffer overflow, which occurred
when an X client installed a large ARGB cursor on an
X server running in NoScanout mode, could cause a denial
of service (e.g., an X server segmentation fault), or
could be exploited to achieve arbitrary code execution.
[ Alberto Milone ]
* debian/control{.in}:
- Drop dependencies on the linux headers.
* debian/dkms.conf{.in}:
- Drop all the patches.
* debian/rules:
- Make it possible to set the xserver ABIs in debian/substvars
* debian/substvars:
- Add support for xorg-video-abi-14.
- Drop versioned dependency on xserver-xorg-core.
- Add an alternative dependency on xserver-xorg-core-lts-quantal.
[ Marc Deslauriers ]
* debian/nvidia-current.install*: make sure we override the dkms.conf
file from upstream.

* debian/control.in, debian/rules:
- Switch from cdbs to debhelper.
* New upstream release:
- Fixed security issue that allowed an exploit to
use NVIDIA UNIX device files to map and program
registers to redirect the VGA window. Through the
VGA window, the exploit could access any region of
physical system memory. This arbitrary memory
access could then be further exploited, for
example, to escalate user privileges (LP: #1033452).
- Added support for xserver ABI 13 (xorg-server 1.13).
- Fixed a bug that caused RRSetOutputPrimary requests
to incorrectly generate BadValue errors when
setting the primary output to None. This caused
gnome-settings-daemon to crash after changing the
screen configuration in response to a display
hotplug or the display change hot-key being pressed.
- Fixed a problem where RENDER Glyphs operations
would exhibit severe performance issues in certain
cases, such as when used with gradients by Cairo
and Chromium.
- Fixed a bug that caused X to hang when resuming
certain DisplayPort display devices (such as Apple
brand mini-DisplayPort to dual-link DVI adapters)
from power-saving mode.
- Added support for the following GPU: Tesla K10
- Fixed a bug that caused an X screen to be extended
to Quadro SDI Output devices by default. An X
screen will still use an SDI Output device if it
is the only display device available. To use a SDI
Output device on an X screen with other display
devices available, include the SDI Output device
with either the "UseDisplayDevice" or "MetaMode"
X configuration options.
- Updated X11 modeline validation such that modes
not defined in a display device's EDID are
discarded if the EDID 1.3 "GTF Supported" flag is
unset or if the EDID 1.4 "Continuous Frequency"
flag is unset. The new "AllowNonEdidModes" token
for the ModeValidation X configuration option can
be used to disable this new check.
- Fixed a bug, introduced in the 295.xx release
series, with EDID detection on some laptop
internal panels. This bug caused the laptop
internal panel to show six small copies of the
desktop.
- Added support for FXAA, Fast Approximate
Anti-Aliasing.

* debian/control.in:
- Make sure to recommend nvidia-settings (>= version).
* New upstream release:
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o GeForce GT 620M
o GeForce GT 640M
o GeForce GT 640M LE
o GeForce GT 650M
o GeForce GTX 660M
o GeForce GTX 670M

o GeForce GTX 560 SE
o GeForce GT 415
o GeForce GTX 460 v2
o NVS 5400M
o NVS 310
o Quadro 410
- Made nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder consistent with the
RRSetOutputPrimary and RRGetOutputPrimary RandR
requests: changes to either nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder
or RandR OutputPrimary will be reflected in the
other.
- Fixed an interaction problem between RandR 1.2,
ConstrainCursor, and panning that prevented panning
from working properly.
- Fixed a bug that caused RandR RRNotify_CrtcChange
events to not be generated when switching between
MetaModes with the same total size but different
layout of display devices. This bug caused some
window managers to not update their layouts in
response to switching same-sized MetaModes.
- Added support for desktop panning when rotation,
reflection, or transformation is applied to a
display device (either through RandR or through
the MetaMode syntax); panning would previously be
ignored in that case.
- Added an "EDID" property to RandR 1.2 outputs.
This property contains the binary contents of the
connected monitor's extended display identification
data, which allows applications such as the GNOME
display properties dialog to query information about
it.
- Fixed a bug that caused audio over HDMI to not work
on some GPUs after querying the RandR configuration
(e.g., `xrandr -q`).
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfo" X configuration
option to report the layout of multiple display
devices within an X screen. This is enabled by
default. When disabled on X servers with RandR
1.2 support, the NVIDIA X driver will report one
screen-sized region. When disabled on X servers
without RandR 1.2 support, no Xinerama information
will be reported. For backwards compatibility, the
"NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" option disables
nvidiaXineramaInfo.
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder" X configuration
option as a replacement for
"TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder". For backwards
compatibility, "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" is kept
as a synonym for "nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder".
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfoOverride" X
configuration option as a replacement for
"TwinViewXineramaInfoOverride". For backwards
compatibility, "TwinViewXineramaInfoOverride" is
kept as a synonym for "nvidiaXineramaInfoOverride".
- Fixed a bug that prevented the use of some SLI Mosaic
topologies.
- Added the "MetaModeOrientation" X configuration
option as a replacement for "TwinViewOrientation".
"TwinViewOrientation" is kept as a synonym for
"MetaModeOrientation", for backwards compatibility.
- Disabled the use of certain OpenGL optimizations
with Autodesk Maya and Mudbox, due to conflicts
between these applications and the optimizations.
Some performance loss in Autodesk Maya and Mudbox
is possible, as a result.
- Fixed a behavior issue where redundant DPMS state
transitions were leading to unexpected screen
blanking on DisplayPort displays.

* New upstream release:
- Fixed a bug that would cause OpenGL applications to
crash when run with recent releases of glibc such as
glibc 2.14.90.
- Improved the performance of FBO bind operations when
using Xinerama by ~30% in some cases.
- Fixed a bug that could cause stereo corruption when
driving a stereo display and a non-stereo display
from the same GPU.
- Fixed a bug that could cause display devices on a
secondary GPU to get swapped between X screens when
restarting the X server.
- Fixed a bug that could result in line flickering in
full-scene anti- aliasing contexts.
- Fixed a bug that caused the physical dimensions of
rotated monitors to be reported incorrectly.
- Add support for the pre-VBO DrawArrays command in
the server-side GLX driver module. The NVIDIA
client-side GLX implementation never sends this
command, but the server needs to support it for
compatibility with other GLX client implementations.
- Fixed a regression that caused blank/white windows
when exhausting video memory on GeForce 6 and 7
series GPUs while using composited desktops.
- Fixed a bug that caused a crash when glDrawArrays
was used with a non-VBO vertex attribute array to
draw on a Xinerama screen other than screen 0 using
an indirect GLX context.

* New upstream release:
- Added official support for xserver 1.10. The -ignoreABI option
is no longer required with this version of the server.
- Updated the NVIDIA kernel module to ensure that all system memory
allocated by it for use with GPUs or within user-space components of the
NVIDIA driver stack is initialized to zero. A new NVIDIA kernel module
option, InitializeSystemMemoryAllocations, allows administrators to
revert to the previous behavior.
- Added preliminary support for xserver 1.10.
- Reorganized the NVIDIA driver's /proc file system layout to better
reflect current needs: /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0..N has been
moved to /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0..N/information
- Added new shared library: libnvidia-ml.so.
- NVML provides programmatic access to static information and monitoring
data for NVIDIA GPUs, as well as limited managment capabilities. It is
intended for use with Tesla compute products. See web-based
documentation and associated nvml.h header for more info.
- Added a new X configuration option "3DVisionDisplayType" to specify
the display type when NVIDIA 3D Vision is enabled with a non
3D Vision ready display.
- Fixed several bugs relating to hardware-accelerated gradients, which were
causing visual corruption in some of the default Ubuntu GNOME themes.
- Modified colormap updates to no longer be synchronized to vblank. This
allows applications to send XStoreColor and XStoreColors requests faster
than the screen's refresh rate. This behavior can be controlled by a new
NV-CONTROL attribute, NV_CONTROL_SYNC_LUT_UPDATES. By default, LUT updates
are not synchronized. This may cause flickering in some applications that
use the colormap to perform animation, such as xpilot running on a depth 8
X screen. If you experience flickering, try running:
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/SynchronousPaletteUpdates=1
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o GeForce GTX 560 Ti
- Added NV-CONTROL event notification for NV_CTRL_FRAMELOCK_SYNC_READY status
changes.
- Added a new X configuration option "Interactive", which defaults to enabled,
but can be disabled to allow long-running GPU compute programs to run
concurrently with X.
- Fixed a bug in the VDPAU presentation queue that could cause VDPAU "display
preemption" when rendering to tiny or zero-sized windows or pixmaps.
- Fixed a bug in VDPAU which prevented use of the overlay presentation queue
following an application exiting without gracefully destroying its VDPAU
presentation queue.

- In Natty gfxpayload=keep is set by default so as to provide a framebuffer
early in the boot process. Some cards don't play nicely with it, therefore
we need to blacklist them in a file. The format is a sequence of lines of
the following form:
vVENDORdDEVICEsvSUBVENDORsdSUBDEVICEbcBASECLASSscSUBCLASS
Blacklist lines are regex-matched against a corresponding PCI ID string.
In practice this means that you can replace any part of the ID string
with .* to match anything.

* debian/rules:
- Switch to new xsfbs variables to get the xserver ABI
(LP: #616214).
* debian/nvidia-current.dirs.in:
- Remove duplicate line.
* New upstream release:
- Added Support for GeForce GTX 460.
- Added Support for Quadro 4000, Quadro 5000, and Quadro 6000.
- Fixed VDPAU to not print a debug error message when calling
VdpVideoMixerQueryFeatureSupport with an unsupported or
unknown VdpVideoMixerFeature.
- Removed the requirement that in TwinView passive stereo,
MetaModes must have identical viewports on each monitor.
- Removed the requirement that in active stereo, all monitors
must use identical modetimings.
- Enhanced VDPAU to better report certain kinds of
initialization error.
- Fixed a regression that caused Xv to return BadAlloc errors
on AGP systems when using the AGP GART driver contained in
the NVIDIA driver.This fixes the problem reported in
nvnews.net thread 151199.
* This release still doesn't report to be compatible with the
new xserver ABI but works fine if the ignoreABI option is
set in xorg.conf.

* debian/nvidia-current-dev*:
- Make the dev package conflict with other dev packages which
provide nvidia-dev so as to make it possible to install
headers directly in /usr/include.
* Adapt the packaging scripts to the new NVIDIA installers.
* New upstream release:
- Fixed a 3D Vision Stereo bug that caused the stereo glasses
to not toggle when the flat panel was not running at its
native mode timings.
- Fixed a bug which prevented use of high performance PowerMizer
levels on systems with certain ACPI configurations.
- Fixed a bug that caused non-primary Fermi GPUs to fail to
initialize framebuffer memory. This caused a variety of
symptoms, up to and including system hangs.
- Added unofficial GLX protocol support (i.e., for GLX indirect
rendering) for the following OpenGL extensions:
o GL_ARB_blend_func_extended
o GL_ARB_draw_buffers_blend
o GL_ARB_sample_shading
o GL_ARB_timer_query
o GL_EXT_draw_buffers2
o GL_EXT_separate_shader_objects
o GL_NV_explicit_multisample
o GL_NV_transform_feedback
- Fixed an interaction problem between Compiz and
'screen-scraping' VNC servers like x11vnc and vino that
caused the screen to stop updating (LP: #353126).
- Enhanced VDPAU to add basic support for Xinerama. VDPAU will
now operate on a single physical X screen under Xinerama.
See the README for more details.
- Enhanced VDPAU's handling of corrupt clips of all formats
on GPUs with VDPAU feature set C to be at least as good as
on GPUs with VDPAU feature set B. This significantly
improves various clips provided by nvnews.net user eamiller.
- Fixed a bug in Xv attribute handling that caused hue,
saturation, brightness and contrast values to be misapplied
when using an Xv overlay adaptor.
- Fixed a bug in the XvMC driver that prevented it from
working on systems with AGP graphics cards.
- Enhanced VDPAU to clear all VdpVideoSurfaces to black when
allocated. This provides more consistent results when using
a surface as a reference when no prior decode operation has
written to that surface. In turn, this improves the results
of decoding some corrupt streams, such as "p_only_no_play"
from ffmpeg bug 1124.
- Implemented new APIs to allow sharing VDPAU surfaces with
OpenGL andCUDA. The OpenGL extension is GL_NV_vdpau_interop.
For CUDA, please see the documentation in the CUDA toolkit
for details.
- Worked around a bug where the combination of a GPU with
VDPAU feature set A together with specific motherboard
chipsets could cause visible corruption when decoding some
MPEG-2 streams.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the VDPAU overlay-based
presentation queue from being used more than a few hundred
times per X server invocation.
- Renamed the driver file libGLcore.so.VERSION to
libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, as a small step towards
reducing the filename collisions between NVIDIA's and
MESA's OpenGL implementations.This driver file is used by
NVIDIA's libGL.so and libglx.so, and should never be used
directly by applications.
- Changed the SONAME of libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION,
libnvidia-tls.so.VERSION, and libnvidia-compiler.so.VERSION
to be ".so.VERSION", rather than ".so.1". These driver files
are only used by other NVIDIA driver components, and are
only intended to be usedby components of the matching NVIDIA
driver version.
- Removed the "-pkg#" suffix from the NVIDIA Linux .run files.
The packages are now simply named "NVIDIA-Linux-ARCH-VERSION.run".
On Linux-x86_64, a package which omits the 32-bit compatibility
libraries is also available:
"NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-VERSION-no-compat32.run"
- Compressed the nvidia-settings, nvidia-installer and
nvidia-xconfig tarballs with bzip2, rather than gzip.

* debian/nvidia_supported:
- nVidia changed the driver blob so that the old heuristic for finding the
symbol with the PCI ID list failed. Implement a new heuristic by finding
the symbol that matches the ID list in README closely enough. (README is
missing a great number of IDs, which is why we need to grab the list
from the blob in the first place).
