Integer underflow in the DHCP server in EMC VMware Workstation before 5.5.5 Build 56455 and 6.x before 6.0.1 Build 55017, Player before 1.0.5 Build 56455 and Player 2 before 2.0.1 Build 55017, ACE before 1.0.3 Build 54075 and ACE 2 before 2.0.1 Build 55017, and Server before 1.0.4 Build 56528 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed DHCP packet that triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2007-0063 is a VMware DHCP server memory-safety flaw. A malformed DHCP packet could let a remote attacker run arbitrary code on affected VMware host-side products. The source bundle identifies fixed builds from 2007; exposure today mainly indicates very old, unsupported virtualization software still present. Likely exposure is limited to environments still running legacy VMware Workstation, Player, ACE, or Server versions with the VMware DHCP service reachable by attacker-supplied DHCP traffic. The bundle does not define exact network boundaries, service defaults, or current support status. Treat as high priority only if legacy VMware desktop/server virtualization remains in production or lab networks. The business risk is remote code execution on host-side virtualization components, but modern estates may have no exposure if these products were retired or updated long ago. Mitigation focus: Upgrade VMware Workstation, Player, ACE, and Server to the fixed builds named by VMware/CVE.; Remove or isolate unsupported legacy VMware products where upgrade is not practical.; Restrict exposure of VMware DHCP services to trusted VM or host-only network segments..
