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-2025-41227 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-2025-41227/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-41227/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-41227","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-41227/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-41227","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h593-cg7r-4hp4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware virtualization","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A malicious guest user can exhaust host memory to cause a denial-of-service condition in VMware virtualization products.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"VMware ESXi, Workstation, and Fusion contain a denial-of-service vulnerability due to certain guest options. A malicious actor with non-administrative privileges within a guest operating system may be able to exploit this issue by exhausting memory of the host process leading to a denial-of-service condition.","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 Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-41227","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"VMware ESXi and vCenter Server Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-41228"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Guest Operations Denial-of-Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-41226"},"products":["Cloud Foundation","ESXi","Fusion","Telco Cloud Infrastructure","Telco Cloud Platform","Workstation"],"published":"2025-05-20","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-06-24","vendors":["VMware"]},"summary":"A malicious guest user can exhaust host memory to cause a denial-of-service condition in VMware virtualization products.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-41227/"}
