Vmware : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2013

The Groovy script console in VMware Hyperic HQ 4.6.6 allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code via a Runtime.getRuntime().exec call.

VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.5 and ESX 4.0 and 4.1 allow local users to read or modify arbitrary files by leveraging the Virtual Machine Power User or Resource Pool Administrator role for a vCenter Server Add Existing Disk action with a (1) -flat, (2) -rdm, or (3) -rdmp filename.

VMware Workstation 9.x before 9.0.3 and VMware Player 5.x before 5.0.3 on Linux do not properly handle shared libraries, which allows host OS users to gain host OS privileges via unspecified vectors.

Session fixation vulnerability in the vSphere Web Client Server in VMware vCenter Server 5.0 before Update 3 allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions and gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

hostd-vmdb in VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.0 and ESX 4.0 through 4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hostd-vmdb service outage) by modifying management traffic.

Directory traversal vulnerability in VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.0, and ESX 4.0 and 4.1, allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary host OS files via unspecified vectors.

Buffer overflow in VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.0, and ESX 4.0 and 4.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

VMware vCenter Chargeback Manager (aka CBM) before 2.5.1 does not proper handle uploads, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

lgtosync.sys in VMware Workstation 9.x before 9.0.3, VMware Player 5.x before 5.0.3, VMware Fusion 5.x before 5.0.4, VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.1, and VMware ESX 4.0 and 4.1, when a 32-bit Windows guest OS is used, allows guest OS users to gain guest OS privileges via an application that performs a crafted memory allocation.

VMware vCenter Server 5.1 before Update 1, when anonymous LDAP binding for Active Directory is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication by providing a valid username in conjunction with an empty password.

VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 5.1 before Update 1 allows remote authenticated users to create or overwrite arbitrary files, and consequently execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, by leveraging Virtual Appliance Management Interface (VAMI) web-interface access.

VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 5.1 before Update 1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary programs with root privileges by leveraging Virtual Appliance Management Interface (VAMI) access.

vmware-mount in VMware Workstation 8.x and 9.x and VMware Player 4.x and 5.x, on systems based on Debian GNU/Linux, allows host OS users to gain host OS privileges via a crafted lsb_release binary in a directory in the PATH, related to use of the popen library function.

VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.1, and ESX 4.0 and 4.1, does not properly implement the Network File Copy (NFC) protocol, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to cause a denial of service (unhandled exception and application crash) by modifying the client-server data stream.

VMware vCenter Server 4.0 before Update 4b, 5.0 before Update 2, and 5.1 before 5.1.0b; VMware ESXi 3.5 through 5.1; and VMware ESX 3.5 through 4.1 do not properly implement the Network File Copy (NFC) protocol, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by modifying the client-server data stream.

The Virtual Machine Communication Interface (VMCI) implementation in vmci.sys in VMware Workstation 8.x before 8.0.5 and 9.x before 9.0.1 on Windows, VMware Fusion 4.1 before 4.1.4 and 5.0 before 5.0.2, VMware View 4.x before 4.6.2 and 5.x before 5.1.2 on Windows, VMware ESXi 4.0 through 5.1, and VMware ESX 4.0 and 4.1 does not properly restrict memory allocation by control code, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

VMware vCenter Server 4.0 before Update 4b and 4.1 before Update 3a, VMware VirtualCenter 2.5, VMware vSphere Client 4.0 before Update 4b and 4.1 before Update 3a, VMware VI-Client 2.5, VMware ESXi 3.5 through 4.1, and VMware ESX 3.5 through 4.1 do not properly implement the management authentication protocol, which allow remote servers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

VMware vCenter Server 4.1 before Update 3 and 5.0 before Update 2, and vCSA 5.0 before Update 2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via vectors that trigger large log entries.
