[cisco-voip] Vmware 6.5 Vulnerability...

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

One more thing to watch out for is incompatible VIB files upon upgrade attempt. I believe the solution is to delete those VIBs and then upgrade. Then reconcile again using ucshwtool

Credit goes to Anthony Holloway for first alerting me to this. And for reminding of the link. ;)

Oh, I forgot to add something. We do use the Cisco custom image, be will also apply patches accordingly, then, based on the UCS Hardware and Software Compatibility ( https://ucshcltool.cloudapps.cisco.com/public/ ) we will reconcile drivers accordingly.

Haven’t used Cisco’s dedicated VMware builds in some time.  Everything has been native VMware iso and patches with the auto update tool.  Haven’t seen issues.  M3/4/5.

Not sure if this helps you or not

This vulnerability from VMware...

https://www.vmware.com/security/advisories/VMSA-2021-0014.html

Trying to find patches for our C240M4S2s running ESXI 6.5 13932383 and Cisco's latest build is 5310538...

Wondering if Cisco supports direct Vmware patching to the fixed version of 180715574...
