VMware 5.5.1 for Windows arbitrary partition table delete issue.

Release Date:

Overview:
On running windows system, you can't delete, format and change system
dirver. VMware register a COM Object use for Virtual Disk, but it's very danger. I don't know how to name this issue. If you allow unsafe ActiveX and
jscript, and has VMware installed, the vmware.htm will delete all harddisk
partition table on the windows system. please backup your partition table first.

Exploit:
