    Hello All,

     

    What is the exact impact of this vulnerability?

    I have already gone through the all the advisories that are officially published.

    Although exploiting this an attacker have RCE on vcenter server, is this means also an attacker completely takeover all ESXIs that are managed by vcenter?

    Do an attacker can execute system command directly(or indirectly) on virtual hosts (in ESXi) using the RCE on vcenter ?
