(VirtualBox: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Thomas Biege of SUSE discovered multiple vulnerabilities:
    A shell metacharacter injection in popen() (CVE-2009-3692) and
    a possible buffer overflow in strncpy() in the VBoxNetAdpCtl
    configuration tool.
    An unspecified vulnerability in VirtualBox
    Guest Additions (CVE-2009-3940).
  
Impact :

    A local, unprivileged attacker with the permission to run VirtualBox
    could gain root privileges. A guest OS local user could cause a Denial
    of Service (memory consumption) on the guest OS via unknown vectors.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
