Oracle VM VirtualBox < 3.2.22 / 4.0.24 / 4.1.32 / 4.2.24 / 4.3.8 Multiple Memory Corruption

medium Nessus Plugin ID 72985

Synopsis

The remote host has an application that is affected by multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host contains a version of Oracle VM VirtualBox that is 3.2.x prior to 3.2.22, 4.0.24, 4.1.32, 4.2.24 or 4.3.8. It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- An input validation error exists in the function 'crNetRecvReadback' in the file 'GuestHost/OpenGL/util/net.c' related to handling CR_MESSAGE_READBACK and CR_MESSAGE_WRITEBACK messages that could allow memory corruption leading to application crashes and possibly arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0981)

- An input validation error exists related to the Chromium server and the handling of CR_VERTEXATTRIB4NUBARB_OPCODE messages that could allow memory corruption leading to application crashes and possibly arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0983)

Solution

Upgrade Oracle VM VirtualBox to 3.2.22 / 4.0.24 / 4.1.32 / 4.2.24 / 4.3.8 or later.
