Threat posed by new VMware hyperjacking vulnerabilities is hard to overstate

Arstechnica · 3m

VMware has patched three critical vulnerabilities affecting its ESXi, Workstation, Fusion, Cloud Foundation, and Telco Cloud Platform. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to escape from a virtual machine to the hypervisor, potentially compromising all VMs on that hypervisor. With severity ratings up to 9.3, these vulnerabilities, already exploited in the wild, pose significant security threats. Organizations using affected products should investigate and secure their environments promptly to mitigate these risks.
