Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Oracle VM VirtualBox versions prior to 6.1.36

Description The issue is related to insufficient input validation in the Core component of Oracle VM VirtualBox. This can be exploited by a high-privileged attacker with logon access to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox is executed, potentially allowing them to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of Oracle VM VirtualBox, resulting in a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 6.1.36, update to version 6.1.36 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Core component of Oracle VM VirtualBox to minimize the risk of exploitation.
