Updated HP VMware Installer w/ 'Heartbleed' Patch

Does anyone know if HP will be releasing updated installers with the 'Heartbleed' patch from VMware now that VMware have released updates to all of their affected products?

Hi,

VMware has released the KB with the fix.

Please visit the following weblink which has the details on resolving OpenSSL Heartbleed for ESXi 5.5 - CVE-2014-0160:

Yes, I'm aware of that. That is why I specifically mentioned the VMware patch in my question.

My question was not about the VMware patch as a standalone update but about if HP will incorparate it into their custom images prior to the 5.5 U2 release. Since this issue (Heartbleed) is so signifigant I would hope HP would issue and out-of-band update to their custom installer.
