VMWare's VMware Cloud Director has a security flaw that researchers believe could be exploited to compromise multiple customer accounts using the same cloud infrastructure. A few weeks back, security pen testing company Citadelo chanced upon what looks like a significant vulnerability while it was carrying out an audit for a VMware customer.
Nearly 80% of the companies had experienced at least one cloud data breach in the past 18 months, and 43% reported 10 or more breaches, a new Ermetic survey reveals. "Even though most of the companies surveyed are already using IAM, data loss prevention, data classification and privileged account management products, more than half claimed these were not adequate for protecting cloud environments," said Shai Morag, CEO of Ermetic.
"As a world-class VMware technology partner, SovLabs has deep expertise helping vRealize customers maximize the value of their automation projects. With the end of general support for vRealize Automation 7.x approaching, the combination of CloudBolt and SovLabs is in a great position to serve this important base who are looking to migrate to vRealize Automation 8 or invest in complementary cloud management capabilities." "Moreover, as CloudBolt and vRealize customers-and enterprises at large-adopt tools like Terraform and Kubernetes for hybrid cloud, our vision of bringing together CloudBolt and SovLabs will help them to better build, deploy, and govern their workloads for the future."
A recently patched vulnerability affecting VMware Cloud Director has a major impact for cloud services providers as it can allow an attacker to take full control of all private clouds hosted on the same infrastructure, cybersecurity firm Citadelo revealed on Monday. Citadelo researchers found that an authenticated attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending specially crafted traffic to Cloud Director either via API calls or the web interface.
A code injection vulnerability affecting VMware vCloud Director could be exploited to take over the infrastructure of cloud services, Citadelo researchers have discovered. VMware Cloud Director is a cloud service delivery platform used by public and private cloud providers to operate and manage cloud infrastructure.
