Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for nvidia-cuda-toolkit.

I have no further details apart what is in [1], which seem to indicate
Operating System Windows only. Do you find more information on that?
If this is confirmed that it only affects nvidia-cuda-toolkit on
windows then feel free to close the bug accordingly, otherwise
probably an update to 11.1.1 in unstable would be good.

CVE-2020-5991[0]:
| NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit, all versions prior to 11.1.1, contains a
| vulnerability in the NVJPEG library in which an out-of-bounds read or
| write operation may lead to code execution, denial of service, or
| information disclosure.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
