8 The shared clipboard enables users to share data between the
9 host and the guest. Enabling the clipboard in Bidirectional
10 mode enables the guest to read and write the host clipboard.
11 The Host to Guest mode and the Guest to Host mode limit the
12 access to one direction. If the guest is able to access the
13 host clipboard it can also potentially access sensitive data
14 from the host which is shared over the clipboard.

17 If the guest is able to read from and/or write to the host
18 clipboard then a remote user connecting to the guest over the
19 network will also gain this ability, which may not be
20 desirable. As a consequence, the shared clipboard is disabled
21 for new machines.
