+    <p>
+    VMware Workstation is a virtual machine for developers and system
+    administrators. VMware Player is a freeware virtualization software
+    that can run guests produced by other VMware products.

+    <p>
+    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in several VMware
+    products. Neel Mehta and Ryan Smith (IBM ISS X-Force) discovered that
+    the DHCP server contains an integer overflow vulnerability
+    (CVE-2007-0062), an integer underflow vulnerability (CVE-2007-0063) and
+    another error when handling malformed packets (CVE-2007-0061), leading
+    to stack-based buffer overflows or stack corruption. Rafal Wojtczvk
+    (McAfee) discovered two unspecified errors that allow authenticated
+    users with administrative or login privileges on a guest operating
+    system to corrupt memory or cause a Denial of Service (CVE-2007-4496,
+    CVE-2007-4497). Another unspecified vulnerability related to untrusted
+    virtual machine images was discovered (CVE-2007-5617).
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    VMware products also shipped code copies of software with several
+    vulnerabilities: Samba (GLSA-200705-15), BIND (GLSA-200702-06), MIT
+    Kerberos 5 (GLSA-200707-11), Vixie Cron (GLSA-200704-11), shadow
+    (GLSA-200606-02), OpenLDAP (CVE-2006-4600), PAM (CVE-2004-0813,
+    CVE-2007-1716), GCC (CVE-2006-3619) and GDB (CVE-2006-4146).

+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Remote attackers within a guest system could possibly exploit these
+    vulnerabilities to execute code on the host system with elevated
+    privileges or to cause a Denial of Service.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All VMware Workstation users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-emulation/vmware-workstation-5.5.5.56455&quot;</code>
+    <p>
+    All VMware Player users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-emulation/vmware-player-1.0.5.56455&quot;</code>
