VMware fixes three critical flaws allowing auth bypass, VM escapes
July 30, 2026
Back to all postsIn a recent announcement, VMware has addressed three critical vulnerabilities in its products, affecting multiple versions of vCenter Server, Workspace ONE Access, and Horizon Client. These flaws allow an unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication and gain full control over virtual machines (VM escapes). This poses a significant threat to Canadian businesses as it allows attackers to potentially access sensitive data, disrupt operations, and compromise the entire network. To mitigate this risk, businesses should immediately update their affected VMware products to the latest versions that fix these vulnerabilities. Regular security audits and maintaining up-to-date software are essential for safeguarding your business against cyber threats.
