  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"a. VMware ESXi and ESX NFC NULL pointer dereference

  VMware ESXi and ESX contain a NULL pointer dereference in the handling
  of the Network File Copy (NFC) traffic. To exploit this vulnerability,
  an attacker must intercept and modify the NFC traffic between
  ESXi/ESX and the client. Exploitation of the issue may lead to a
  Denial of Service.

  To reduce the likelihood of exploitation, vSphere components should be
  deployed on an isolated management network.

  b. VMware VMX process denial of service vulnerability

  Due to a flaw in the handling of invalid ports, it is possible to
  cause the VMX process to fail. This vulnerability may allow a guest
  user to affect the VMX process resulting in a partial denial of
  service on the host.

  c. VMware vCloud Director Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

  VMware vCloud Director contains a vulnerability in the Hyper Text
  Transfer Protocol (http) session management. An attacker may trick
  an authenticated user to click a malicious link, which would result
  in the user being logged out. The user is able to immediately log
  back into the system.");
