Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox component of Oracle Virtualization (subcomponent: GUI). Supported versions that are affected are VirtualBox prior to 5.0.32 and prior to 5.1.14. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols 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 takeover of Oracle VM VirtualBox. CVSS v3.0 Base Score 8.4 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts).

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201702-08 (VirtualBox: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in VirtualBox. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

This update for virtualbox to version 5.1.14 fixes the following issues :

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2016-5545: Vulnerability in the GUI subcomponent of     virtualbox allows unauthenticated attacker unauthorized     update, insert or delete access to some data as well as     unauthorized read access to a subset of VirtualBox     accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a     partial denial of service (bsc#1020856).

  - CVE-2017-3290: Vulnerability in the Shared Folder     subcomponent of virtualbox allows high privileged     attacker unauthorized creation, deletion or modification     access to critical data and unauthorized ability to     cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash     (bsc#1020856).

  - CVE-2017-3316: Vulnerability in the GUI subcomponent of     virtualbox allows high privileged attacker with network     access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle VM     VirtualBox (bsc#1020856).

  - CVE-2017-3332: Vulnerability in the SVGA Emulation     subcomponent of virtualbox allows low privileged     attacker unauthorized creation, deletion or modification     access to critical data and unauthorized ability to     cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash     (bsc#1020856).

The version of Oracle VM VirtualBox installed on the remote host is 5.0.x prior to 5.0.32 or 5.1.x prior to 5.1.14. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the GUI subcomponent that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact     confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
    (CVE-2016-5545)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the Shared Folder     subcomponent that allows a local attacker to impact     integrity and availability. (CVE-2017-3290)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the GUI subcomponent that     allows an authenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3316)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the VirtualBox SVGA     Emulation subcomponent that allows a local attacker to     impact integrity and availability. (CVE-2017-3332)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
