VMware has released a security advisory alerting businesses to multiple vulnerabilities in its server and workstation virtualisation software.
Versions of VMware Workstation, VMware Player, VMware ACE, VMware Server, and VMware ESX are affected, according to the security announcement. In its advisory, the company provides links to several patches to fix the various issues. The versions of software affected were the latest prior to the patches being released on Friday.
The US Computer Emergency Response Team issued a warning on Tuesday that these vulnerabilities may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, cause a denial-of-service condition, access systems using elevated privileges, or obtain sensitive information.
