It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2007-4591 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Workstation. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4591/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4591/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-4591","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4591/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-4591","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r6r3-r6w4-2j6c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware Workstation","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can crash the host OS or potentially escalate privileges via a crafted IOCTL request in VMware Workstation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"vstor-ws60.sys in VMWare Workstation 6.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (host operating system crash) and possibly gain privileges by sending a small file buffer size value to the FsSetVolumeInformation IOCTL handler with an FsSetFileInformation subcode.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4591","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:workstation","products":["vmware:workstation"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4592"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4590"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-08-29","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Use after free in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5511","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5512","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Path traversal in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2023-20854","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5526","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in Workstation","id":"CVE-2017-4939","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-1069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can crash the host OS or potentially escalate privileges via a crafted IOCTL request in VMware Workstation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4591/"}
