Synopsis

A virtualization application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of VMware Horizon View Client installed on the remote host is 4.x prior to 4.6.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities including arbitrary code execution or a DoS.
