Synopsis
The remote host has a virtual desktop solution installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Description
The version of VMware Horizon View Client installed on the remote host is 3.2.x prior to 3.2.1, 3.3.x prior to 3.4.0, or 5.x (with local mode) prior to 5.4.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
- An arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists due to a stack-based buffer overflow condition in the JPEG2000 plugin that is triggered when parsing a Quantization Default (QCD) marker segment in a JPEG2000 (JP2) image file. A remote attacker can exploit this, using a specially crafted image, to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2012-0897)
- Multiple denial of service vulnerabilities exist due to improper memory allocation by the TPView.dll and TPInt.dll libraries. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2015-2338, CVE-2015-2339, CVE-2015-2340)
- Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist due to improper memory allocation by the TPView.dll and TPInt.dll libraries. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-2336, CVE-2015-2337)
Solution
Upgrade to VMware Horizon View Client 3.2.1 / 3.4.0 / 5.4.2 (with local mode) or later.

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the VMware Horizon View Client 3.2.x < 3.2.1 / 3.3.x < 3.4.0 / or 5.x < 5.4.2 Multiple Vulnerabilities (VMSA-2015-0004) vulnerability:
- Metasploit: exploit/windows/fileformat/irfanview_jpeg2000_bof
[Irfanview JPEG2000 jp2 Stack Buffer Overflow] - Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/local/19519.rb
[EDB-19519: IrfanView JPEG2000 4.3.2.0 - jp2 Stack Buffer Overflow (Metasploit)]
Before running any exploit against any system, make sure you are authorized by the owner of the target system(s) to perform such activity. In any other case, this would be considered as an illegal activity.
WARNING: Beware of using unverified exploits from sources such as GitHub or Exploit-DB. These exploits and PoCs could contain malware. For more information, see how to use exploits safely.
