AMD beseitigte zahlreiche Sicherheitslücken im Grafiktreiber für Windows 10
In einem in dieser Woche erschienenen Security Bulletin hat AMD insgesamt 27 Sicherheitslücken im Grafiktreiber für Windows 10 aufgeführt, von denen man die meisten bereits im Jahr 2020 beseitigt hat. Zwei davon wurden allerdings erst mit der Version 21.4.1 angegangen und besitzen jeweils die Einstufung “Hoch”.
Es empfiehlt sich also nicht nur wegen der beiden letztgenannten Sicherheitslücken, CVE-2020–12960 und CVE-2020–12981, oder zum Beispiel wegen der Performanceverbesserungen im gestern erschienenen Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.11.2 den Grafiktreiber aktuell zu halten.
