Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle VM VirtualBox versions prior to 6.1.40
Description
The issue is related to insufficient input validation in the Core component of Oracle VM VirtualBox, which can be exploited by a low-privileged attacker with logon access to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and can result in the takeover of Oracle VM VirtualBox. This issue applies to Windows systems only.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 6.1.40, update to version 6.1.40 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.
