        This module exploits a vulnerability in VMware Workstation Pro and
        Player on Linux which allows users to escalate their privileges by
        using an ALSA configuration file to load and execute a shared object
        as root when launching a virtual machine with an attached sound card.
 
        This module has been tested successfully on VMware Player version
        12.5.0 on Debian Linux.
