This is the NVIDIA-specific part of 
DSA-3095-1 xorg-server -- security update

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8298

The NVIDIA Linux Discrete GPU drivers before R304.125, R331.x before
R331.113, R340.x before R340.65, R343.x before R343.36, and R346.x
before R346.22, Lixux for Tegra (L4T) driver before R21.2, and Chrome OS
driver before R40 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(segmentation fault and X server crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code via a crafted GLX indirect rendering protocol request.

All NVIDIA drivers (in non-free) are affected:

not fixable (no new upstream release will be provided):

 nvidia-graphics-drivers              | 343.22-2            |

I expect wheezy (only nvidia-graphics-drivers can be fixed there)
shall be fixed via wheezy-proposed-updates, no DSA, as in the previous ones?
