CVE-2017-4901
Estado: ModificadaCrítica (9.9)—💥 Exploit
La función drag-and-drop (DnD) en Workstation versiones 12.x y anteriores a 12.5.4 y Fusion versiones 8.x y anteriores a 8.5.5 de VMware, presenta una vulnerabilidad de acceso a la memoria fuera de límites. Esto puede permitir que un invitado ejecute código en el sistema operativo que ejecuta Workstation o Fusion.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.9
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 20%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 97
- Fecha de la puntuación: 8/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
