Hi,
On VMWare when decoding /sys/class/dmi/id/product_serial dmidecode produces an output whereby the first 16 characters have been reversed in comparison to /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid.
This manifests itself by breaking provisioning in Kubernetes and could cause other issues down the line. Other OS such as redhat have already patched this in their releases.
A demonstration of the issue can be found in this pastebin:

Cheers! |

Hi,
On VMWare 6.5 and higher (HW version 13 and higher) when decoding /sys/class/dmi/id/product_serial dmidecode produces an output whereby the first 16 characters have been reversed in comparison to /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid.
This manifests itself by breaking provisioning in Kubernetes and could cause other issues down the line. Other OS such as redhat have already patched this in their releases.
