About VMware Security

VMware Security is a community-driven platform dedicated to documenting, sharing, and discussing security vulnerabilities and proof of concepts related to VMware products. Our goal is to help security researchers, system administrators, and organizations better understand and address security issues in VMware environments.

By providing a centralized repository of vulnerabilities, we aim to:

• Increase awareness of security issues affecting VMware products
• Facilitate responsible disclosure and timely patching
• Share proof of concepts for educational purposes
• Build a knowledge base of mitigation strategies
• Foster collaboration within the security community

We believe that transparency and knowledge sharing are essential for improving the security posture of organizations using VMware products. By making this information accessible, we help defenders stay ahead of potential threats.

We are committed to responsible disclosure practices. All vulnerabilities published on this platform should follow these guidelines:

• Vulnerabilities should only be published after they have been reported to VMware and a patch has been released, or after a reasonable disclosure timeline has elapsed
• Proof of concepts should be for educational purposes only
• Content should focus on helping organizations understand and mitigate risks

If you discover a new vulnerability in a VMware product, please report it directly to VMware through their official security response center before submitting it to our platform.

If you're a security researcher interested in VMware products, we welcome your contributions to our platform. By sharing your findings, you help the broader community understand and address security challenges.

When submitting vulnerabilities or proof of concepts, please:

• Provide detailed information about the vulnerability
• Include clear steps to reproduce the issue
• Document affected versions and components
• Share mitigation strategies when available
• Follow responsible disclosure practices
