I see to attack vectors, in both cases the host must be infected: A) if the host is infected with a malware that uses remote exploits in the private network to spread. I think this is not even an uncommon scenario B) the host is infected with a virtualization-aware malware, that uses known vulnerabilities in host virtualization software. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of aluminex () gmail com Sent: Montag, 4.

The host os can communicate to the guest os. Are these systems susceptible to certain attacks? Do unpatched host systems in this configuration pose the same threat as an unpatched guest os? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
