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-2023-20869 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Fusion. 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-2023-20869/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20869/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20869","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20869/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20869","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xpqq-583w-8g73"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware virtualization software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in VMware Workstation and Fusion allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges via Bluetooth sharing.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"fusion","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"VMware Workstation (17.x) and VMware Fusion (13.x) contain a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability that exists in the functionality for sharing host Bluetooth devices with the virtual machine.","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 VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation) and VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2023-20869","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:fusion","products":["vmware:fusion","vmware:workstation"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation) and VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2023-20870"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in NSX-T","id":"CVE-2023-20868"},"products":["VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation) and VMware Fusion"],"published":"2023-04-25","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"VMware Multiple Products Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2020-3950","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-03-17"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in Fusion Pro / Fusion","id":"CVE-2017-4901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-08"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Use after free in VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2024-22267","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-14"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in Workstation and Fusion","id":"CVE-2019-5541","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code-execution vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-38811","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation) and VMware Fusion","id":"CVE-2023-20872","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Use after free in Fusion","id":"CVE-2020-3947","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-16"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in VMware Workstation and Fusion allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges via Bluetooth sharing.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20869/"}
