Description |
EMC VMware Player contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when a user loads a .vmx file containing an ide1:0.fileName parameter with an overly long value, and will result in loss of availability for the the VMware instace. However, for an attacker to gain access and edit the .vmx file, it would require a level of access that would allow a wide variety of attacks. This level of access is considered to be trusted and not readily available to someone looking to launch this type of attack.
