Thanks for posting this here @victorwu. As VMware Tools are active in almost every VMware VM, this is quite serious.

I also just discovered that open-vm-tools also need to be updates. So you also need to look at your Linux VMs and appliances.

Thanks for the advice.

Its amazing how fast viruses, vulnerabilities, etc. come across too fast!

Not even finishing patching and we need to start over again with a new one.
