vCenter Server plugins must be verified.
Description
Discussion Text
The vCenter Server includes a vSphere Client extensibility framework, which provides the ability to extend the vSphere Client with menu selections or toolbar icons that provide access to vCenter Server add-on components or external, web-based functionality.
vSphere Client plugins or extensions run at the same privilege level as the user. Malicious extensions might masquerade as useful add-ons while compromising the system by stealing credentials or incorrectly configuring the system.
Additionally, vCenter comes with a number of plugins preinstalled that may or may not be necessary for proper operation.
