Vulnerability management in hypervisors is a Grade-A dumpster fire and has been for years. Anyone who has had to patch hypervisors understands why they often lag behind in patching. Sure, patching is the responsibility of the organization using a tool. But the harder it is to patch something, the less likely it is that patching will occur.
I'm personally hoping the #ESXiArgs ransomware operations change how hypervisor vendors provide patches and remediations, specifically lowering friction for systems admins that have to apply the patches.
