<title>VMware Player, Server, Workstation: Multiple vulnerabilities</title> |
| 21 |
<synopsis>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in VMware Player, Server, |
| 22 |
and Workstation, allowing remote and local attackers to conduct several |
| 23 |
attacks, including privilege escalation, remote execution of arbitrary |
| 24 |
code, and a Denial of Service. |

<description> |
| 56 |
<p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in VMware Player, Server, |
| 57 |
and Workstation. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for |
| 58 |
details. |

<impact type="high"> |
| 62 |
<p>Local users may be able to gain escalated privileges, cause a Denial of |
| 63 |
Service, or gain sensitive information. |
| 64 |
</p> |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file, |
| 67 |
possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial |
| 68 |
of Service. Remote attackers also may be able to spoof DNS traffic, read |
| 69 |
arbitrary files, or inject arbitrary web script to the VMware Server |
| 70 |
Console. |
| 71 |
</p> |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
<p>Furthermore, guest OS users may be able to execute arbitrary code on the |
| 74 |
host OS, gain escalated privileges on the guest OS, or cause a Denial of |
| 75 |
Service (crash the host OS). |
| 76 |

<p>Gentoo discontinued support for VMware Player. We recommend that users |
| 83 |
unmerge VMware Player: |

<p>NOTE: Users could upgrade to |
| 91 |
“>=app-emulation/vmware-player-3.1.5”, however these packages are |
