Discussion

RETIRED: VMware Hosted Products VMSA-2010-0007 Multiple Remote and Local Vulnerabilities

VMware-hosted products are prone to multiple remote and local vulnerabilities:

- A remote arbitrary code-execution vulnerability
- A privilege-escalation vulnerability
- Multiple heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerabilities
- Multiple format-string vulnerabilities
- A remote denial-of-service vulnerability
- An information-disclosure vulnerability

An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code, elevate privileges, cause denial-of-service conditions, and obtain sensitive information. Other attacks are also possible.

This BID is being retired. The following individual records exist to better document these issues:

39407 VMware 'vmrun' Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
39395 VMware Hosted Products 'vmware-vmx' Virtual Network Stack Information Disclosure Vulnerability
39392 VMware Hosted Products VMware Tools Library Reference Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
39394 VMware Hosted Products VMware Tools Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
39397 VMware Hosted Products USB Service Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
39396 VMware Remote Console 'connect' Method Remote Format String Vulnerability
39363 VMware Hosted Products HexTile Encoded Video Chunk Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
39364 VMware Hosted Products Integer Truncation Multiple Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
36630 VMware Player and Workstation 'vmware-authd' Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability
