    🚨 Critical VMware vCenter Vulnerabilities — CVSS 9.8 Broadcom has issued VMSA-2026-0006.1 addressing multiple vulnerabilities across VMware vCenter, ESX, Workstation, Fusion and Cloud Foundation. * CVE-2026-59309 — Critical vCenter authentication bypass, CVSS 9.8. * An attacker with network access to vCenter may bypass authentication and gain unauthorized access. * CVE-2026-59310 — Critical vCenter directory traversal vulnerability, CVSS 9.8. * An attacker with network access may exploit it to execute arbitrary code on vCenter. * CVE-2026-47876 — Critical VMXNET3 out-of-bounds write, CVSS 9.3, potentially allowing a malicious VM administrator to execute code on the ESXi host. * Broadcom also patched CVE-2026-41703 and CVE-2026-41709. * Broadcom lists NO workaround for the critical vulnerabilities. Organizations should prioritize applying the available patches. 🔎 Analyst Note: vCenter represents a high-value management plane. Compromise can provide attackers with extensive visibility and control over virtualized infrastructure, making authentication bypass and remote code execution vulnerabilities particularly serious for enterprise environments.

    Patch

    Broadcomは、VMware製品群に影響する複数の脆弱性を修正するセキュリティアドバイザリ「VMSA-2026-0006」を公開した。vCenterの認証回避やESXでのVMエスケープなど重大な問題が含まれ、CVSS最大値は9.8となっている。 最も深刻なCVE-2026-59309は、vCenter ServerのDirectory Serviceに存在する認証回避で、ネットワーク経由で管理プレーンへ不正アクセスできる可能性がある。CVE-2026-59310はSyslogサーバーのディレクトリトラバーサルにより任意コード実行が可能となる脆弱性で、いずれもCVSS 9.8。ESXでは、VMXNET3仮想ネットワークアダプターの境界外書き込み(CVE-2026-47876、CVSS 9.3)により、VM内のローカル管理者権限からESXホスト上でコードを実行し、VMエスケープにつながる可能性がある。このほか、境界外読み取り(CVE-2026-41703)や監査ログ不備(CVE-2026-41709)も修正された。 影響を受けるのはvCenter Server、ESX、Workstation、Fusion、Cloud Foundation、vSphere Foundation、Telco Cloud製品などで、BroadcomはvCenter 9.1.0.0300、9.0.2.0100、8.0 U3kや、ESXiおよびWorkstation、Fusion向けの修正版を公開している。 https://cybersecuritynews.com/vmware-flaws-allow-authentication-bypass/

    Post summary

    Broadcom issued the VMSA‑2026‑0006 advisory, patching multiple high‑CVSS VMware vulnerabilities—including authentication bypass, directory traversal, and VM escape risks—without reporting any PoC or active exploitation.
