VMware ESXi and ESX contain a vulnerability in the handling of
the Network File Copy (NFC) protocol. To exploit this
vulnerability, an attacker must intercept and modify the NFC
traffic between ESXi/ESX and the client.  Exploitation of the
issue may lead to a Denial of Service.

To reduce the likelihood of exploitation, vSphere components should
be deployed on an isolated management network");
