VMlogix heading towards becoming a cross-platform lab manager

Startup VMLogix has launched LabManager, a product for conducting software builds and testing new software as it comes out of the development process.

VMware, the dominant virtualization vendor, has a similar product by the same name, VMware Lab Manager, first introduced in November 2006. VMLogix was a few months behind, launching LabManager in July 2007. In the current 3.3 version release announced Jan. 28, VMLogix LabManager can conduct software quality assurance and testing in virtualized environments under VMware's ESX Server orCitrix (NSDQ: CTXS) XenServer, "the only virtual lab automation solution on the market to support XenServer."

"We are finally presenting an alternative to VMware," said Sameer Dholakia, CEO, in an interview.

Support for Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)'s Hyper-V hypervisor will soon follow, as well as Oracle (NSDQ: ORCL) and Sun Microsystems (NSDQ: JAVA) hypervisors, both based on XenSource's Xen hypervisor, Dholakia said. VMLogix seeks to be the first cross vendor supplier of virtualization test lab software.

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.
