Detail
a. Host code execution vulnerability from a guest operating system A critical vulnerability in the virtual machine display function might allow a guest operating system to run code on the host. This issue is different from the vulnerability in a guest virtual device driver reported in VMware security advisory VMSA-2009-0005 on 2009-04-03. That vulnerability can cause a potential denial of service and is identified by CVE-2008-4916. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-1244 to this issue. |
