The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201209-25 (VMware Player, Server, Workstation: Multiple vulnerabilities)

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in VMware Player, Server,       and Workstation. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for       details.

Impact :

Local users may be able to gain escalated privileges, cause a Denial of       Service, or gain sensitive information.
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file,       possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial       of Service. Remote attackers also may be able to spoof DNS traffic, read       arbitrary files, or inject arbitrary web script to the VMware Server       Console.
Furthermore, guest OS users may be able to execute arbitrary code on the       host OS, gain escalated privileges on the guest OS, or cause a Denial of       Service (crash the host OS).

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
