Kategorie:	Buffer overflow
Titel:	VMCI/HGFS VmWare Code Execution Vulnerability (VMSA-2008-0008) - Linux
Zusammenfassung:	VMWare product(s) are prone to an arbitrary code execution vulnerability.
Beschreibung:	Summary: VMWare product(s) are prone to an arbitrary code execution vulnerability. Vulnerability Insight: VMware Host Guest File System (HGFS) shared folders feature allows users to transfer data between a guest operating system and the host operating system. A heap buffer overflow exists in VMware HGFS which allows guest system to execute code in the context of vmx process on the host. The issue exists only when VMWare system has shared folder enabled. Successful exploitation requires that the vix.inGuest.enable configuration value is enabled Vulnerability Impact: Successful exploitation allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the affected system and local users could bypass certain security restrictions or can gain escalated privileges. Affected Software/OS: VMware Player 2.0.x - 2.0.3 on Linux VMware Workstation 6.0.x - 6.0.3 on Linux Solution: Upgrade VMware to: VMware Workstation 6.0.4 or later VMware Player 2.0.4 or later. CVSS Score: 6.9 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
