VMware vCenter Server 4.1 before Update 3 and 5.0 before Update 2, and vCSA 5.0 before Update 2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via vectors that trigger large log entries.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
