VMware Fusion 5.x < 5.0.1 VMX Process DoS (VMSA-2014-0001)

The version of VMware Fusion 5.x installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 5.0.1. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to an issue with handling invalid ports that could allow a guest user to crash the VMX process. C Tenable Network Security, Inc...

VMware Workstation 9.x < 9.0.1 VMX Process DoS (VMSA-2014-0001)

The version of VMware Workstation installed on the remote host is version 9.x prior to 9.0.1. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to an issue with handling invalid ports that could allow a guest user to crash the VMX process. C Tenable Network Security,...

CVE-2011-1936

Xen, when using x86 Intel processors and the VMX virtualization extension is enabled, does not properly handle cpuid instruction emulation when exiting the VM, which allows local guest users to cause a denial of service guest crash via unspecified vectors...

CVE-2011-1936

CVE-2011-1936 concerns the Xen hypervisor on x86 with VMX enabled. The issue is that cpuid instruction emulation is not properly handled when exiting a virtual machine, which can allow a local guest user to trigger a denial of service (guest crash) via unspecified vectors. The description does no...

CVE-2011-1936: Undefined Security Weakness

Xen, when using x86 Intel processors and the VMX virtualization extension is enabled, does not properly handle cpuid instruction emulation when exiting the VM, which allows local guest users to cause a denial of service guest crash via unspecified vectors...

CVE-2013-4551

Xen 4.2.x and 4.3.x, when nested virtualization is disabled, does not properly check the emulation paths for 1 VMLAUNCH and 2 VMRESUME, which allows local HVM guest users to cause a denial of service host crash via unspecified vectors related to "guest VMX instruction execution."...

PT-2013-5067

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Xen versions 4.2.x through 4.3.x Description The issue allows local HVM guest users to cause a denial of service, specifically a host crash, via unspecified vectors related to guest VMX instruction execution. This occurs when nested...

ESXi 5.0 < Build 1311175 Multiple Vulnerabilities (remote check)

The remote VMware ESXi 5.0 host is affected by the following security vulnerabilities : - Multiple errors exist related to OpenSSL that could allow information disclosure or denial of service attacks. CVE-2013-0166, CVE-2013-0169 - An error exists in the libxml2 library related to the expansion o...

Host crash due to guest VMX instruction execution

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Permission checks on the emulation paths intended for guests using nested virtualization for VMLAUNCH and VMRESUME were deferred too much. The hypervisor would try to use internal state which is not set up unless nested virtualization is actually enabled for a guest. IMPACT A...

CVE-2013-2212

The vmxsetucmode function in Xen 3.3 through 4.3, when disabling caches, allows local HVM guests with access to memory mapped I/O regions to cause a denial of service CPU consumption and possibly hypervisor or guest kernel panic via a crafted GFN range...
