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-2014-4200 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-2014-4200/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4200/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-4200","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4200/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-4200","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-4200","GHSA-959q-xwwj-g697"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware Tools","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can read sensitive information from vm-support archives due to insecure file permissions in VMware Tools.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"tools","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vm-support","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"vm-support 0.88 in VMware Tools, as distributed with VMware Workstation through 10.0.3 and other products, uses 0644 permissions for the vm-support archive, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by extracting files from this archive.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4200","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:workstation","products":["vmware:workstation"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4201"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4199"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-08-28","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Tools","id":"CVE-2023-34057","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-7079","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-29"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-7080","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-29"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"XML external entity in VMware Tools for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-22977","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-24"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in VMware Tools for Windows","id":"CVE-2019-5522","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-06"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Race condition in VMware Tools for Windows (VMware Tools)","id":"CVE-2020-3941","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-15"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Information disclosure in VMware Tools","id":"CVE-2018-6969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-13"}],"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":"Local attackers can read sensitive information from vm-support archives due to insecure file permissions in VMware Tools.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4200/"}
