Parallels Desktop virtio-gpu Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

CVE-2023-50227

What is CVE-2023-50227?

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the virtio-gpu component of Parallels Desktop, attributed to insufficient validation of user-supplied data during processing. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate data in such a way that it results in a write operation that exceeds the bounds of a buffer. As a result, an attacker can execute arbitrary code in the context of the hypervisor, provided that a user on a guest system interacts with a malicious webpage or file. This presents a significant risk, especially in environments that utilize virtual machines for various purposes. Mitigating this vulnerability involves enforcing strict input validation and patching affected systems as per vendor advisories.
