Descriptions

VMware VirtualCenter 2.5 before Update 2 and 2.0.2 before Update 5 relies on client-side "enabled/disabled functionality" for access control, which allows remote attackers to determine valid user names by enabling functionality in the GUI and then making an "attempt to assign permissions to other system users."

VirtualCenter de VMware versión 2.5 anterior a Update 2 y versión 2.0.2 anterior a Update 5, se basa en la función "enabled/disabled functionality" para el control de acceso, lo que permite a los atacantes remotos determinar nombres de usuario comprobados mediante la habilitación de la funcionalidad en la GUI y luego haciendo un "attempt to assign permissions to other system users".
