CVE-2007-0062 [CRITICAL] VMWare vulnerabilities
Title: VMWare vulnerabilities
Summary: VMWare vulnerabilities
Neel Mehta and Ryan Smith discovered that the VMWare Player DHCP server
did not correctly handle certain packet structures. Remote attackers
could send specially crafted packets and gain root privileges.
(CVE-2007-0061, CVE-2007-0062, CVE-2007-0063)
Rafal Wojtczvk discovered multiple memory corruption issues in VMWare
Player. Attackers with administrative privileges in a guest operating
system could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary
code on the host operating system. (CVE-2007-4496, CVE-2007-4497)
Instructions: After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to
effect the necessary changes.

CVE-2007-5365 [CRITICAL] CVE-2007-5365 dhcpd stack-based buffer overlow
CVE-2007-5365 dhcpd stack-based buffer overlow
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2007-5365 to the following vulnerability:
Stack-based buffer overflow in the cons_options function in options.c in dhcpd in OpenBSD 4.0 through 4.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a DHCP request specifying a maximum message size smaller than the minimum IP MTU.
