vmware-nsx-security 1.5.12

VMware NSX 1.5.12 contains a critical flaw in its Distributed Firewall (DFW) microsegmentation feature that could allow unauthorized lateral movement within virtualized networks. All organizations using NSX for network security, including those in cloud and hybrid environments, are affected by potential bypass of security policies. Immediate patching or mitigation is strongly advised to prevent exploitation.
