The ESXi host must not suppress warnings about unmitigated hyperthreading vulnerabilities.
Description
Discussion Text
The L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF) CPU vulnerabilities published in 2018 have patches and mitigations available in vSphere. However, there are performance impacts to these mitigations that require careful thought and planning from the system administrator before implementation. Until a mitigation is implemented, the UI warning about the lack of a mitigation must not be dismissed so the system administrator does not assume the vulnerability has been addressed.
