The virtual networking stack in VMware Workstation 7.0 before 7.0.1 build 227600, VMware Workstation 6.5.x before 6.5.4 build 246459 on Windows, VMware Player 3.0 before 3.0.1 build 227600, VMware Player 2.5.x before 2.5.4 build 246459 on Windows, VMware ACE 2.6 before 2.6.1 build 227600 and 2.5.x before 2.5.4 build 246459, VMware Server 2.x, and VMware Fusion 3.0 before 3.0.1 build 232708 and 2.x before 2.0.7 build 246742 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from memory on the host OS by examining received network packets, related to interaction between the guest OS and the host vmware-vmx process.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This VMware hosted-virtualization flaw could leak sensitive memory from the host operating system through received network packets. The concern is confidentiality: data from the physical host may be exposed to someone able to observe affected virtual networking traffic. The sources do not show active exploitation. Exposure is most likely in legacy environments still running affected VMware hosted products: Workstation, Player, ACE, Server 2.x, or Fusion versions listed in the CVE description. Modern fleets are unlikely affected unless old desktop virtualization builds remain installed. Medium priority for most organizations, higher where legacy VMware desktop or server virtualization remains in use with untrusted guests or network exposure. The issue is old, but host-memory disclosure can still matter in labs, engineering workstations, and unmanaged endpoints. Mitigation focus: Inventory VMware hosted virtualization products and exact build numbers.; Upgrade affected products to the fixed builds named in the CVE description.; For VMware Server 2.x, follow VMware VMSA-2010-0007 guidance..
