CVE-2018-6967
VMware ESXi (6.7 before ESXi670-201806401-BG), Workstation (14.x before 14.1.2), and Fusion (10.x before 10.1.2) contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the shader translator.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.26%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
