For their VMWare DHCP bug:

     This release fixes several vulnerabilities in the DHCP server
     that could enable a specially crafted packets to gain system-level
     privileges. (CVE-2007-0061, CVE-2007-0062, CVE-2007-0063)

I wonder if there's any way to trigger that when you're not behind the
VMWare NAT or in Host-Only mode.

Also this bug from Rafal Wojtchzvk looks really cool (and quite vague
- - does it work without VMWare tools installed? Going to have to say he
plays with the paravirtualization stack maybe?).

     This release fixes a security vulnerability that could allow a
     guest operating system user with administrative privileges to cause
     memory corruption in a host process, and thus potentially execute
     arbitrary code on the host. (CVE-2007-4496)
