Descriptions
VMware vCenter Server (6.5 prior to 6.5 U1) contains an information disclosure issue due to the service startup script using world writable directories as temporary storage for critical information. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow unprivileged host users to access certain critical information when the service gets restarted.
VMware vCenter Server en su versión 6.5 anterior a la 6.5 U1 tiene un problema de fuga de información puesto que el script de inicio del servicio utiliza directorios modificables por cualquier usuario para almacenar temporalmente información crítica. Si se explota con éxito esta vulnerabilidad, podría permitir que los usuarios host sin privilegios accedan a información crítica cuando el servicio se reinicie.
