The remote VMware ESX / ESXi host is missing a security-related patch.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • Multiple forgery vulnerabilities exist in the bundled version of MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5). An attacker can exploit these issues to impersonate a client, escalate privileges, and disclose sensitive information.
    (CVE-2010-1323, CVE-2010-1324, CVE-2010-4020, CVE-2010-4021)

  • A local arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists in the Kernel in the do_anonymous_page() function due to improper separation of the stack and the heap. A local attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-2240)

  • A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows a remote attacker to exhaust available sockets, preventing further connections. (CVE-2011-1785)

  • A denial of service vulnerability exists in the bundled version of lsassd in Likewise Open. A remote attacker can exploit this, via an Active Directory login attempt that provides a username containing an invalid byte sequence, to cause a daemon crash. (CVE-2011-1786)
