The remote ESXi is missing one or more security related Updates from VMSA-2012-0005.

Summary

VMware vCenter Server, Orchestrator, Update Manager, vShield, vSphere Client, ESXi and ESX address
several security issues

Relevant releases

VMware vCenter Server 5.0
VMware vSphere Client 5.0
VMware vSphere Client 4.1 Update 1 and earlier
VMware vCenter Orchestrator 4.2
VMware vCenter Orchestrator 4.1 Update 1 and earlier
VMware vCenter Orchestrator 4.0 Update 3 and earlier
VMware vShield Manager 4.1 Update 1

ESXi 5.0 without patches ESXi500-201203101-SG, ESXi500-201112402-BG
ESXi 4.1 without patch ESXi410-201110202-UG
ESXi 4.0 without patch ESXi400-201110402-BG
ESX 4.1 without patch ESX410-201110201-SG
ESX 4.0 without patch ESX400-201110401-SG

Problem Description

a. VMware Tools Display Driver Privilege Escalation

The VMware XPDM and WDDM display drivers contain buffer overflow vulnerabilities and the XPDM display
driver does not properly check for NULL pointers. Exploitation of these issues may lead to local privilege
escalation on Windows-based Guest Operating Systems.

b. vSphere Client internal browser input validation vulnerability

The vSphere Client has an internal browser that renders html pages from log file entries. This browser doesn’t
properly sanitize input and may run script that is introduced into the log files. In order for the script to
run, the user would need to open an individual, malicious log file entry. The script would run with the
permissions of the user that runs the vSphere Client.

c. vCenter Orchestrator Password Disclosure

The vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) Web Configuration tool reflects back the vCenter Server password as part of the
webpage. This might allow the logged-in vCO administrator to retrieve the vCenter Server password.

d. vShield Manager Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability

The vShield Manager (vSM) interface has a Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability. If an attacker can convince
an authenticated user to visit a malicious link, the attacker may force the victim to forward an authenticated
request to the server.

e. vCenter Update Manager, Oracle (Sun) JRE update 1.6.0_30

Oracle (Sun) JRE is updated to version 1.6.0_30, which addresses multiple security issues that existed in earlier
releases of Oracle (Sun) JRE.

f. vCenter Server Apache Tomcat update 6.0.35

Apache Tomcat has been updated to version 6.0.35 to address multiple security issues.

g. ESXi update to third party component bzip2

The bzip2 library is updated to version 1.0.6, which resolves a security issue.
