    VMware Unified Access Gateway (formerly called Access Point)  
    VMware Horizon View     
    VMware Horizon View Client for Windows
    VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation)
Problem Description:
a. Unified Access Gateway and Horizon View heap buffer-overflow vulnerability
VMware Unified Access Gateway and Horizon View contain a heap buffer-overflow vulnerability which may allow a remote attacker to execute code on the security gateway... The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the identifier CVE-2017-4907 to this issue...
b. Multiple heap-based buffer overflow issues via Cortado ThinPrint
VMware Workstation and Horizon View Client contain multiple heap buffer-overflow vulnerabilities in JPEG2000 and TrueType Font (TTF) parsers in the TPView.dll. On Workstation, this may allow a guest to execute code or perform a Denial of Service on the Windows OS that runs Workstation. In the case of a Horizon View Client, this may allow a View desktop to execute code or perform a Denial of Service on the Windows OS that runs the Horizon View Client. Exploitation is only possible if virtual printing has been enabled. This feature is not enabled by default on Workstation but it is enabled by default on Horizon View... The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the identifiers CVE-2017-4908 (JPEG2000) and CVE-2017-4909 (TTF) to these issues...
c. Multiple out-of-bounds read/write issues via Cortado ThinPrint
