VMware Emulation Flaw x64 Guest Privilege Escalation (1/2)

If any exception occurs during execution of a kernel-mode service
routine's prologue prior to the initial SWAPGS instruction, or in the
epilogue after the final SWAPGS instruction, then the fault handler
will be invoked with a "return CS" indicating kernel mode, but with a
GS base not guaranteed to be kernel GS, because the interrupted
prologue code did not yet have a chance to execute the SWAPGS
instruction.  In other words, the interrupt handler for the exception
could execute with user GS still active, and yet it will not use
SWAPGS to switch to kernel GS because the previous mode was kernel
mode, meaning the handler could then act upon user-controlled data as
though it were trusted kernel data.

[USN-930-4] Firefox and Xulrunner vulnerabilities

An integer overflow was discovered in how Firefox processed plugin
parameters. An attacker could exploit this to crash the browser or possibly
run arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-1214)

A flaw was discovered in the Firefox JavaScript engine. If a user were
tricked into viewing a malicious site, a remote attacker code execute
arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges. (CVE-2010-1215)

An integer overflow was discovered in how Firefox processed CSS values. An
attacker could exploit this to crash the browser or possibly run arbitrary

 b. Privilege escalation on ESX or Linux based hosted operating systems

    This update fixes a security issue related to local exploitation of
    an untrusted library path vulnerability in vmware-authd. In order to
    exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must have local access and
    the ability to execute the set-uid vmware-authd binary on an affected
    system. Exploitation of this flaw might result in arbitrary code
    execution on the Linux host system by an unprivileged user.
