The VMware Workstation install detected on the remote host is 7.x earlier than 7.1.6, or 8.0.x earlier than 8.0.4 and is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • A memory corruption error exists related to the handling of ‘Checkpoint’ files that can allow arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-3288)

  • An error exists related to handling traffic from remote physical devices, e.g. CD-ROM or mouse that can cause the virtual machine to cash. Note that this issue only affects the 8.x branch. (CVE-2012-3289)
