spring-cloud-function: Remote code execution by malicious Spring Expression

In Spring Cloud Function versions 3.1.6, 3.2.2 and older unsupported versions, when using routing functionality it is possible for a user to provide a specially crafted SpEL as a routing-expression that may result in remote code execution and access to local resources.

spring-framework: RCE via Data Binding on JDK 9+

A Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux application running on JDK 9+ may be vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) via data binding. The specific exploit requires the application to run on Tomcat as a WAR deployment. If the application is deployed as a Spring Boot executable jar, i.e. the default, it is not vulnerable to the exploit. However, the nature of the vulnerability is more general, and there may be other ways to exploit it.

VMware ESXi contains an authentication bypass vulnerability. A malicious actor with sufficient Active Directory (AD) permissions can gain full access to an ESXi host that was previously configured to use AD for user management https://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2012/09/joining-vsphere-hosts-to-active-directory.html by re-creating the configured AD group ('ESXi Admins' by default) after it was deleted from AD.

VMware vCenter Server Out-of-Bounds Write Vulnerability

vCenter Server contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the implementation of the DCERPC protocol. A malicious actor with network access to vCenter Server may trigger an out-of-bounds write potentially leading to remote code execution.

openslp: Heap-based buffer overflow in ProcessSrvRqst() in slpd_process.c leading to remote code execution

OpenSLP as used in ESXi and the Horizon DaaS appliances has a heap overwrite issue. VMware has evaluated the severity of this issue to be in the Critical severity range with a maximum CVSSv3 base score of 9.8.

VMware Tools Authentication Bypass Vulnerability

A fully compromised ESXi host can force VMware Tools to fail to authenticate host-to-guest operations, impacting the confidentiality and integrity of the guest virtual machine.

Aria Operations for Networks contains a command injection vulnerability. A malicious actor with network access to VMware Aria Operations for Networks may be able to perform a command injection attack resulting in remote code execution.

Lack of TLS validation in plugin VMware vSAN on Checkmk Exchange

Improper Certificate Validation in Checkmk Exchange plugin VMware vSAN allows attackers in MitM position to intercept traffic.

PlaintextPasswordEncoder authenticates encoded passwords that are null

Spring Security, versions 4.2.x up to 4.2.12, and older unsupported versions support plain text passwords using PlaintextPasswordEncoder. If an application using an affected version of Spring Security is leveraging PlaintextPasswordEncoder and a user has a null encoded password, a malicious user (or attacker) can authenticate using a password of "null".

VMware vRealize Operations contains an information disclosure vulnerability. A low-privileged malicious actor with network access can access log files that lead to information disclosure.

VMware vRealize Operations contains a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with administrative network access can escalate privileges to root.

Information disclosure vulnerability

VMware ESXi, Workstation, and Fusion contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the UHCI USB controller. A malicious actor with administrative access to a virtual machine may be able to exploit this issue to leak memory from the vmx process.  

VMware NSX-T (3.x before 3.0.2, 2.5.x before 2.5.2.2.0) contains a security vulnerability that exists in the way it allows a KVM host to download and install packages from NSX manager. A malicious actor with MITM positioning may be able to exploit this issue to compromise the transport node.

VMware ESXi (7.0 prior to ESXi70U1c-17325551), VMware Workstation (16.x prior to 16.0 and 15.x prior to 15.5.7), VMware Fusion (12.x prior to 12.0 and 11.x prior to 11.5.7) and VMware Cloud Foundation contain a denial of service vulnerability due to improper input validation in GuestInfo. A malicious actor with normal user privilege access to a virtual machine can crash the virtual machine's vmx process leading to a denial of service condition.

VMware NSX Manager UI is vulnerable to a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack due to improper input validation.

VMware NSX contains a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the gateway firewall due to improper input validation.

VMware NSX contains a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the router port due to improper input validation.

VMSA-2025-0008: VMware Aria automation updates address a DOM based Cross-site scripting vulnerability (CVE-2025-22249)

VMware Aria automation contains a DOM based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. A malicious actor may exploit this issue to steal the access token of a logged in user of VMware Aria automation appliance by tricking the user into clicking a malicious crafted payload URL.

The vCenter Server contains a denial-of-service vulnerability. A malicious actor with network access to vCenter Server may create a denial-of-service condition.

VMware ESXi contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A malicious actor with local administrative privileges on a virtual machine with an existing snapshot may trigger an out-of-bounds read leading to a denial-of-service condition of the host.
