Local disclosure of all accessible data
Published Apr 22, 2021 · Updated Sep 26, 2024
Information disclosure in Oracle VM VirtualBox Core before 6.1.20 allows local users to read critical or all accessible data. Oracle has not published the affected Core routine or the operation that exposes data, so the code-level mechanism remains undisclosed. Exploitation requires logon to the host infrastructure, needs no additional product privilege or user interaction, and affects confidentiality only.
