VBOX Sandbox Escape - Guest to Host

Post by Cody Johnston » Thu Nov 08, 2018 5:29 pm

Hi All!

I haven't tested this myself yet, but it seems that someone has found a bug that allows escaping VBOX from guest to host.

Here is a link to the full writeup, there is code in there but it's not ready-made for people to just go and use, as the code is within the writeup:

And the video showing the escape working:

Looks like VMWare products were compromised too:
