The GPUBreach attack technique exploits RowHammer-induced bit-flips in GPU memory (specifically GDDR6) to escalate privileges and potentially achieve full system takeover. Research demonstrates that this method extends beyond mere data corruption, enabling attackers to gain elevated access or complete control of a targeted system. The exploit targets GPU memory vulnerabilities rather than traditional CPU or software flaws. No specific CVE IDs, dates, or affected vendor models were mentioned in the reported findings. The impact includes privilege escalation and unauthorized system control.
