ESRS VE and recent spectre/meltdown vulnerbilities
Hi, I note as part of article 516617 (link below) and the recent spectre/meltdown vulnerabilities, the article states ESRS VE is affected and to check with the hardware system vendor or hypervisor vendor for any available updates for the host system to prevent attacks. We're running a 4 VM vApp deployment and our customer has confirmed that have no patches and expect us as the vApp vendor to provide a fixed version. The last comment in the article details states that a remediation plan for the guest OS is in progress, can somebody in the product development space tell me if this will include a vApp VM patch? Just so that it's clear and I can communicate expectations to my customer.
