CVE-2024-37080 is a critical heap-overflow vulnerability in VMware vCenter Server’s implementation of the DCERPC protocol. The flaw is a memory corruption condition in network-reachable DCERPC handling that can be triggered by sending a specially crafted packet to a vulnerable vCenter Server instance. Broadcom/VMware described the issue as potentially leading to remote code execution. The vulnerability affects VMware vCenter Server 7.0 and 8.0 releases prior to the fixed updates published in June 2024, and it also impacts VMware Cloud Foundation deployments that include the vulnerable vCenter Server component.
