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-2024-22273 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Cloud Foundation. 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-2024-22273/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22273/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-22273","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22273/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-22273","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9mq7-wpm3-gv26"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware hypervisor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A malicious actor with VM access can exploit storage controller flaws to cause denial of service or execute code on the hypervisor.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_foundation","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"esxi","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"fusion","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"},{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"The storage controllers on VMware ESXi, Workstation, and Fusion have out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability. A malicious actor with access to a virtual machine with storage controllers enabled may exploit this issue to create a denial of service condition or execute code on the hypervisor from a virtual machine in conjunction with other issues.","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 Cloud Foundation (ESXi)","id":"CVE-2024-22273","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:cloud_foundation","products":["vmware:cloud_foundation","vmware:esxi","vmware:fusion","vmware:workstation"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in VMware Cloud Foundation (vCenter Server)","id":"CVE-2024-22274"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Cloud Director","id":"CVE-2024-22272"},"products":["VMware Cloud Foundation (ESXi)","VMware ESXi","VMware Fusion","VMware Workstation"],"published":"2024-05-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware vCenter Server Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2024-38812","kev_date_added":"2024-11-20","published":"2024-09-17"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Broadcom VMware vCenter Server Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2024-37079","kev_date_added":"2026-01-23","published":"2024-06-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware Workspace ONE Access and Identity Manager Server-Side Template Injection","id":"CVE-2022-22954","kev_date_added":"2022-04-14","published":"2022-04-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware vCenter Server File Upload","id":"CVE-2021-22005","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-09-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware vCenter Server Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2021-21985","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-05-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware Server Side Request Forgery in vRealize Operations Manager API","id":"CVE-2021-21975","kev_date_added":"2022-01-18","published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware vCenter Server Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-21972","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-02-24"}],"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":"2025-03-26","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A malicious actor with VM access can exploit storage controller flaws to cause denial of service or execute code on the hypervisor.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22273/"}
