Subject: Is Proxmox VE vulnerable to ransomware like VMware vSphere?

Good day from Singapore,

Recently, VMware vSphere has come under the spotlight because tens of
thousands of VMware vSphere installations are vulnerable to
ransomware. Ransomware gangs are actively targeting VMware vSphere. Is
Proxmox VE vulnerable to ransomware like VMware vSphere?

Please advise. Thank you.

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.
