Descriptions

VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 5.5 before Update 2, 5.1 before Update 3, and 5.0 before Update 3c does not properly validate certificates when connecting to a CIM Server on an ESXi host, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof CIM servers via a crafted certificate.

VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) 5.5 anterior a Update 2, 5.1 anterior a Update 3, y 5.0 anterior a Update 3c no valida correctamente los certificados cuando conecta a un servidor CIM en un anfitrión ESXi, lo que permite a atacantes man-in-the-middle suplantar servidores CIM a través de un certificado manipulado.
