No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

Kernel software installed and running inside a Guest VM may post improper commands to the GPU Firmware to trigger a write of data outside the Guest's virtualised GPU memory.

Out of bounds accesses triggered by malware introduced to a Guest KMD could allow privilege escalation which escapes virtualization boundaries.
