Low alerts refer to vulnerabilities with minimal potential to impact Australia.

A high alert is a cyber security vulnerability where people should act quickly (within 48 hours). There are generally no mitigating actions available, and the impact is widespread amongst customers. Impacts are estimated to be lower than a critical alert. High alerts refer to vulnerabilities that might affect Australia.
The ACSC is aware of multiple vulnerabilities in VMware products. Affected Australian organisations should take appropriate action.
