Hi,

I'm not sure which VMware exploit you're referring, but I think you mean the OpenSLP exploit.
For that automated exploit one needs to not install patches + having management services access via WAN.
So yes, ANY system connected to the internet is vulnerable in that sense, only the attack surface can be minimized by e.g. having an isolated management network where those services are accessible.
