Summary

VMware ESXi (6.7 before ESXi670-201903001, 6.5 before ESXi650-201903001, 6.0 before ESXi600-201903001), Workstation (15.x before 15.0.4, 14.x before 14.1.7), Fusion (11.x before 11.0.3, 10.x before 10.1.6) contain a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability in the virtual USB 1.1 UHCI (Universal Host Controller Interface). Exploitation of this issue requires an attacker to have access to a virtual machine with a virtual USB controller present. This issue may allow a guest to execute code on the host.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Leveraging Race Conditions via Symbolic Links
    This attack leverages the use of symbolic links (Symlinks) in order to write to sensitive files. An attacker can create a Symlink link to a target file not otherwise accessible to her. When the privileged program tries to create a temporary file with the same name as the Symlink link, it will actually write to the target file pointed to by the attackers' Symlink link. If the attacker can insert malicious content in the temporary file she will be writing to the sensitive file by using the Symlink. The race occurs because the system checks if the temporary file exists, then creates the file. The attacker would typically create the Symlink during the interval between the check and the creation of the temporary file.
  • Leveraging Time-of-Check and Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) Race Conditions
    This attack targets a race condition occurring between the time of check (state) for a resource and the time of use of a resource. The typical example is the file access. The attacker can leverage a file access race condition by "running the race", meaning that he would modify the resource between the first time the target program accesses the file and the time the target program uses the file. During that period of time, the attacker could do something such as replace the file and cause an escalation of privilege.

    descriptiona. VMware ESXi, Workstation and Fusion UHCI out-of-bounds read/write and TOCTOU vulnerabilities VMware ESXi, Workstation and Fusion contain an out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability and a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability in the virtual USB 1.1 UHCI (Universal Host Controller Interface). Exploitation of these issues requires an attacker to have access to a virtual machine with a virtual USB controller present. These issues may allow a guest to execute code on the host. VMware would like to thank the Fluoroacetate team of Amat Cama and Richard Zhu, working with the Pwn2Own 2019 Security Contest, for reporting these issues to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the identifiers CVE-2019-5518 (out-of-bounds read/write) and CVE-2019-5519 (TOCTOU) to these issues. b. VMware Workstation and Fusion out-of-bounds write vulnerability in e1000 virtual network adapter VMware Workstation and Fusion contain an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the e1000 virtual network adapter. This issue may allow a guest to execute code on the host. VMware would like to thank security researcher Zhangyanyu of Chaitin Tech for reporting this issue to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the identifier CVE-2019-5524 to this issue. c. VMware Workstation and Fusion out-of-bounds write vulnerability in e1000 and e1000e virtual network adapters VMware Workstation and Fusion updates address an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the e1000 and e1000e virtual network adapters. Exploitation of this issue may lead to code execution on the host from the guest but it is more likely to result in a denial of service of the guest.

    Mac OS X host is 10.x prior to 10.1.6 or 11.x prior to 11.0.3. It is,
    therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:
    
      - An out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability and a Time-of-check
        Time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability in the virtual USB 1.1 UHCI
        (Universal Host Controller Interface). Exploitation of these
        issues requires an attacker to have access to a virtual machine
        with a virtual USB controller present. These issues may allow a
        guest to execute code on the host. (CVE-2019-5518, CVE-2019-5519)
    
      - An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the e1000 virtual network
        adapter. This issue may allow a guest to execute code on the
        host. (CVE-2019-5524)
    
      - An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the e1000 and e1000e
        virtual network adapters. Exploitation of this issue may lead to
        code execution on the host from the guest but it is more likely
        to result in a denial of service of the guest. (CVE-2019-5515)
    
      - A security vulnerability due to certain unauthenticated APIs
        accessible through a web socket. An attacker may exploit this
        issue by tricking the host user to execute a JavaScript to
        perform unauthorized functions on the guest machine where VMware
        Tools is installed. This may further be exploited to execute
        commands on the guest machines. (CVE-2019-5514)

    descriptionThe remote VMware ESXi host is version 6.0, 6.5, or 6.7 and is missing a security patch. It is, therefore, vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities, including: - An out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability and a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability in the virtual USB 1.1 UHCI (Universal Host Controller Interface). Exploitation of these issues requires an attacker to have access to a virtual machine with a virtual USB controller present. These issues may allow a guest to execute code on the host.
