Descriptions
Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox component of Oracle Virtualization (subcomponent: Core). The supported version that is affected is Prior to 5.2.16. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle VM VirtualBox, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle VM VirtualBox and unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 7.1 (Confidentiality and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:H).
Vulnerabilidad en el componente Oracle VM VirtualBox de Oracle Virtualization (subcomponente: Core). La versión compatible afectada es la anterior a la 5.2.16. Una vulnerabilidad fácilmente explotable permite que un atacante sin autenticar y con permisos de inicio de sesión en la infraestructura en la que se ejecuta Oracle VM VirtualBox comprometa la seguridad de Oracle VM VirtualBox. Para que los ataques tengan éxito, se necesita la participación de otra persona diferente del atacante y, aunque la vulnerabilidad está presente en Oracle VM VirtualBox, los ataques podrían afectar seriamente a productos adicionales. Los ataques exitosos a esta vulnerabilidad pueden dar lugar a la capacidad no autorizada de provocar el bloqueo o cierre inesperado repetido (DoS completo) de Oracle VM VirtualBox, así como el acceso de lectura no autorizado a un subconjunto de datos accesibles de Oracle VM VirtualBox. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 7.1 (Impactos de confidencialidad y disponibilidad). Vector CVSS: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:H).
This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of Oracle VirtualBox. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target guest system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the crUnpackExtendAreProgramsResidentNV method. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute code in the context of the hypervisor.
