* **Authentication failure is reported as unknown general system error.**

Attempts to authenticate through <tt>VGAuth</tt> service might result in an authentication-specific error such as an expired account or password. The authentication-specific error might then be incorrectly reported as an unknown general system error, similar to the following:

Successful exploitation may result in a local privilege escalation. The impact of this vulnerability is low for distributions which have enabled PrivateTmp for the affected service.

Attempts to take quiesced snapshots may fail on RHEL 7 guest operating systems that are running Docker containers. Docker version 1.12.x and later create special mount points for containers. These mount points are recorded as 'net:[NUMBER]' instead of absolute paths in <tt>/proc/self/mounts</tt> on the system.

The previous change to the Linux VMCI driver resulted in intermittent

hangs during soft reboots of RHEL 6.8 Linux VM. This change reverts

that code change and resets the driver version number.

FreeBSD: Use the "dhclient" command to renew a DHCP IP address.
43+
44+
On FreeBSD, "/etc/rc.d/netif" is sufficient to stop a network interface
45+
when suspending a VM. When resuming a VM, DHCP configured interfaces
46+
must be restarted with "/etc/rc.d/dhclient".
47+
48+
This fix is courtesy of Steve Wills, maintainer of open-vm-tools on
49+
FreeBSD, and Shuai Wang.

VMCI: reset datagram buffer pointer on dealloc
58+
59+
Fix a potential guest crash when unloading the VMCI
60+
driver while upgrading to a specific version of UEK.
61+
A BH may run during module unload and attempt to deliver
62+
datagrams to the datagram buffer after it has been
63+
deallocated. It turns out that the tasklet may not
64+
yet have been scheduled, so add a tasklet_disable to
65+
guard against that. Also, reset the datagram buffer
66+
pointer when the buffer is deallocated to indicate
67+
that it is no longer there.

Fix an invalid class pointer access when the VSS provider is not installed.
97+
98+
Customers may disable VSS support by not installing the VMware snapshot
99+
provider, which may lead to the VSS provider being uninitialized, which in
100+
turn can cause an invalid class pointer access during initialization
101+
completion.
102+
103+
This change fixes the issue by checking the provider initialization status
104+
before running the initialization completer.

Include sysmacros.h directly as mandated by glibc-2.25.
111+
112+
glibc-2.25 generates a deprecation warning for using the 'major'
113+
macro without including sysmacros.h.
114+
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.25
115+
116+
This breaks Fedora builds of open-vm-tools because Fedora 26 is
117+
switching to glibc-2.25.

Fix timesync state to be uncalibrated when adjustment is large (>60ms).
124+
125+
Open-vm-tools has a timesync plugin to adjust the guest time to match the
126+
host time. Timesync relies on a state machine (uncalibrated, calibrating
127+
and PLL states) to adjust the amount of guest time to match host time.
128+
If the guest and host time differ by more than 60ms, the state machine
129+
should reset to the uncalibrated state. This change fixes a bug that could
130+
leave the state in PLL mode even when the guest and host times differed by
131+
more than 60ms, since the absolute value of adjustment was not considered,
132+
which in turn caused the time sync to happen more slowly than expected.
