+ File descriptor vulnerability in the open-vm-tools vmware-user-suid-wrapperx
+ on Linux
+
+ Moving the privilege drop logic (dropping privilege to the real uid and
+ gid of the process for the vmusr service) from suidWrapper to vmtoolsd code.
+ Now the vmtoolsd is not executed with dropped privileges (started as setuid
+ program) and the dumpable attribute of the process is not reset.
+ The unprivileged user will not have access to the privileged file descriptors
+ in the vmtoolsd vmusr process.
+ Also, setting the FD_CLOEXEC flag for both uinputFd and blockFd preventing
+ the file descriptors being inherited any further from the vmtoolsd.

+
+ Checking flag 'disable_vmware_customization' in more cloud-init config files
+
+ Currently, deployPkg plugin checks the existence of flag
+ 'disable_vmware_customization: false' in the /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg file
+ to determine if VMware customization is enabled or not on cloud-init
+ side when cloud-init is available in guest.
+ Both cloud-init team and customers suggested that it's better practice to
+ put local configuration like this flag into some .cfg files under
+ /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d directory, ex: /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/somefile.cfg
+
+ This change implements the following adjustments to make sure we handle
+ this flag the same way as cloud-init does in ds-identify and Datasource:
+ 1. Instead of regex matching flag 'disable_vmware_customization: false',
+ we will check the value of flag 'disable_vmware_customization':
+ If the value is 'false', it means VMware customization is enabled.
+ If the value is 'true', it means VMware customization is disabled.
+ If the flag is not set, by default VMware customization is disabled
+ on cloud-init side.
+ 2. Besides cloud-init /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg file, we will check all .cfg
+ files under /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d directory.
+ 3. The value of flag 'disable_vmware_customization' in .cfg files under
+ /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d directory will overwrite the one in
+ /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg file.
+ 4. The value of flag 'disable_vmware_customization' in a .cfg file listed
+ further down the alphabetical order under /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d directory
+ will overwrite the value in a .cfg file listed earier.
+ 5. If a cloud-init config file contains more than one instance of this
+ flag, the value of the later flag will overwrite the former one's.
