VMware responded by issuing lawsuits against the hackers for unauthorised modifications to the software.

VMWare is no longer VMWare. It’s Broadcom, which is like the slimiest of the slimy when it comes to the tech industry

Which is why anyone with a brain would sell the exploits anonymously. Like with Oracle their shittyness makes 0day prices on the black market LOWER than what zerodium lists. They simply sell multiple times and still make more.
