CVE-2017-10407: Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox component of Oracle Virtualization (subcomponent: Core).

Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox component of Oracle Virtualization (subcomponent: Core). The supported version that is affected is Prior to 5.1.30. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. While the vulnerability is in Oracle VM VirtualBox, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle VM VirtualBox as well as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data and unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 7.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:H).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-10407 affects Oracle VM VirtualBox before 5.1.30. An already highly privileged user on the VirtualBox infrastructure could crash VirtualBox repeatedly and access or modify some VirtualBox-accessible data. This is not a remote internet-facing issue, but it can disrupt virtualization-dependent workflows. Exposure is most likely on systems still running Oracle VM VirtualBox versions prior to 5.1.30, especially shared administration hosts, lab environments, CI machines, or desktop virtualization platforms where privileged local users have access. Treat as a targeted infrastructure hardening item. It is high severity, but the attacker must already have privileged local access. Prioritize remediation where VirtualBox supports business-critical workloads or shared administrative environments. Mitigation focus: Identify all Oracle VM VirtualBox installations and versions.; Prioritize updating VirtualBox versions earlier than 5.1.30.; Review Oracle’s October 2017 CPU guidance for official remediation details..
