An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-3288 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Esx. 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-2012-3288/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3288/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-3288","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3288/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-3288","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9j82-jjqx-5j4g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware virtualization software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service on the host OS via a crafted Checkpoint file, requiring user interaction.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"esx","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"esxi","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"fusion","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"player","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"VMware Workstation 7.x before 7.1.6 and 8.x before 8.0.4, VMware Player 3.x before 3.1.6 and 4.x before 4.0.4, VMware Fusion 4.x before 4.1.3, VMware ESXi 3.5 through 5.0, and VMware ESX 3.5 through 4.1 allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the host OS or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) on the host OS via a crafted Checkpoint file.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3288","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:esx","products":["vmware:esx","vmware:esxi","vmware:fusion","vmware:player","vmware:workstation"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3289"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3287"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-06-14","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1405","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-02-15"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1516","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3658","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4281","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1517","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2449","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service on the host OS via a crafted Checkpoint file, requiring user interaction.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3288/"}
