may exploit this issue to access certain internal services. (CVE-2025-41229)
- A malicious actor with network access to port 443 on VMware Cloud Foundation

- A malicious actor with access to VMware Cloud Foundation appliance may be able to
perform certain unauthorised actions and access limited sensitive information. (CVE-2025-41231)
