Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2006-07-13 00:00 – Updated: 2025-01-17 13:58
VLAI?
Summary
EMC VMware Player allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (unrecoverable application failure) via a long value of the ide1:0.fileName parameter in the .vmx file of a virtual machine. NOTE: third parties have disputed this issue, saying that write access to the .vmx file enables other ways of stopping the virtual machine, so no privilege boundaries are crossed
Severity ?
