CVE-2024-37079 is a critical memory corruption vulnerability in VMware vCenter Server caused by a heap overflow, also described in some reporting as an out-of-bounds write, in the implementation of the DCERPC protocol. The flaw affects vCenter Server 7.0 and 8.0 release lines prior to the vendor-fixed builds and can be triggered remotely by sending a specially crafted network packet to a vulnerable vCenter Server instance. The issue resides in a highly privileged management component of the VMware virtualization stack, and successful exploitation can result in unauthenticated remote code execution on the vCenter Server. VMware Cloud Foundation deployments that include a vulnerable vCenter Server component are also impacted.
