Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4907)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in VMware Unified Access Gateway and Horizon View. A remote attacker can trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4908)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing JPEG2000 images in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4909)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing TrueType Font (TTF) in TPView.dll in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4910)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing JPEG2000 images in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds read/write and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4911)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing JPEG2000 images in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds read/write and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4912)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing TrueType Font (TTF)  fonts in TPView.dll in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds read/write and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


7) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-4913)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing TrueType Font (TTF)  fonts in TPView.dll in VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client. A remote attacker can trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on security gateway.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
