"The version of VMware Fusion installed on the remote Mac OS X host is
8.1.x prior to 8.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by an arbitrary code
execution vulnerability in the Shared Folders (HGFS) feature due to
improper loading of Dynamic-link library (DLL) files from insecure
paths, including the current working directory, which may not be under
user control. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability, by
placing a malicious DLL in the path or by convincing a user into
opening a file on a network share, to inject and execute arbitrary
code in the context of the current user.");

Note that VMware Tools on Windows-based guests that use the Shared
Folders (HGFS) feature must also be updated to completely mitigate the
vulnerability.");
