Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox product of Oracle Virtualization (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is Prior to 6.1.24. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. While the vulnerability is in Oracle VM VirtualBox, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle VM VirtualBox. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.0 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H).

## GSOh No! Hunting for Vulnerabilities in VirtualBox Network Offloads
## Introduction
The Pwn2Own contest is like Christmas for me. It’s an exciting competition which involves rummaging around to find critical vulnerabilities in the most commonly used (and often the most difficult) software in the world. Back in March, I was preparing to have a pop at the Vancouver contest and had decided to take a break from writing browser fuzzers to try something different: VirtualBox.
Virtualization is an incredibly interesting target. The complexity involved in both emulating hardware devices and passing data safely to real hardware is astounding. And as the mantra goes: where there is complexity, there are bugs.

For Pwn2Own, it was a safe bet to target an emulated component. In my eyes, network hardware emulation seemed like the right (and usual) route to go. I star
