Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-10-27 09:48:22 UTC
Only the "JRE Security Update" (section c) should be relevant, but I'm currently not sure how exactly this makes a vmware server vulnerable.

Server         2.0       any      affected, patch pending
Server         1.0       any      not affected

"Notes: These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely only if the attacker has access to the Service Console network."
Comment 1 Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-10-27 09:50:52 UTC
Rating B1 for now, but I'm not sure which level of access might be possible; please adjust if you have further information.

vmware-server-2.0.2.203138 is in the tree.
Comment 4 Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-10-30 18:30:12 UTC
Are there any problems with the modules? Is it ready for stabling?

Yes, I think vmware-modules-1.0.0.24-r1.ebuild are ready.

vmware-modules-1.0.0.25 are for vmware-workstation-6.5.3.185404 are ready as well.
Comment 6 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-11-04 04:23:03 UTC
Since Server 1.0 (our stable) is not affected and 2.0 (our unstable) is fixed in unstable, this bug is resolved. Modules and Workstation are up to date via bug 282213.
