    Package        : open-vm-tools     CVE ID         : CVE-2025-22247     Debian Bug     : 1105159

    It was discovered that insecure file handling in open-vm-tools, an open     source implementation of VMware Tools, may allow an unprivileged local     guest user to tamper local files to trigger insecure file operations     within that VM.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in     version 2:12.2.0-1+deb12u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your open-vm-tools packages.
