Oracle VM VirtualBox < 4.3.8 - Authenticated Remote Code Execution via 3D Acceleration Network Pointer
Title source: llmExploitation Summary
EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-2014-0981. PoCs published by Core Security.
AI-analyzed exploit summary This advisory details multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities in Oracle VirtualBox's 3D Acceleration feature, specifically in the Chromium library's handling of OpenGL commands. It provides a technical breakdown of three CVEs (CVE-2014-0981, CVE-2014-0982, CVE-2014-0983) involving improper validation of array indices, leading to arbitrary memory write primitives and potential guest-to-host escape.
Description
VBox/GuestHost/OpenGL/util/net.c in Oracle VirtualBox before 3.2.22, 4.0.x before 4.0.24, 4.1.x before 4.1.32, 4.2.x before 4.2.24, and 4.3.x before 4.3.8, when using 3D Acceleration allows local guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the Chromium server via crafted Chromium network pointer in a (1) CR_MESSAGE_READBACK or (2) CR_MESSAGE_WRITEBACK message to the VBoxSharedCrOpenGL service, which triggers an arbitrary pointer dereference and memory corruption. NOTE: this issue was MERGED with CVE-2014-0982 because it is the same type of vulnerability affecting the same set of versions. All CVE users should reference CVE-2014-0981 instead of CVE-2014-0982.
