Discussion

VMware Multiple Hosted Products Display Function Code Execution Vulnerability

Multiple VMware Hosted products are prone to a code-execution vulnerability that affects the 'rect_copy()' function of the SVGA II FIFO 3D capability on the guest operating system.

An attacker in the guest operating system can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the host system. This may facilitate a complete compromise of the host computer.

The following are affected:

VMware Workstation 6.5.1 and earlier
VMware Player 2.5.1 and earlier
VMware ACE 2.5.1 and earlier
VMware Server 2.0
VMware Server 1.0.8 and earlier
