Secunia meldet vmware workstation 7 insecure.

Hi,

sorry, but if you want, you can use a translation software.

Hallo zusammen,

Secunia PSI 2.0.0.3003 meldet bezüglich

VMware Workstation 7.x

This program was detected as Insecure, it is strongly  recommended that you apply the latest security patch from the vendor of the  program.

The version detected of VMware Workstation 7.x was  7.1.5.19539 while the latest version including one or more security fixes is  8.x.

und

VMware Player 3.x

This program was detected as being End-of-Life, which  means that the vendor no longer supports this program. It is strongly  recommended that you upgrade to a newer version of this program or uninstall it  from your PC.

VMware zeigt mir aber die Version 7.1.5 build-491717 an.

Wird es ein Update geben oder muss ich jetzt ständig mit der Meldung von Secunia leben?

Irgendwann werde ich vielleicht die 8er kaufen, aber wozu, wenn die 7er noch vollkommen für mich ausreicht.

Was meint ihr dazu; es sind bestimmt auch andere betroffen.

Gruß

As the product is end of life you can either choose to upgrade the product to the most recent version to continue getting updates for the product. There will be no development commitment from VMware as the product is End of Life.

However, you can choose to continue using the product if it is working fine in your current setup.

Note: Please do not consider my comments/suggestions as an official response from VMware.

Thank you Rahulverma201…

I had not found your mentioned link.

As long as no security gaps, I'll use the version 7.
