Hello Hardik,

 

Please find all related info about these vulnerabilities on the following link:

 

https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K91229003

 

If you are running VCMP then the Hardware may be vulnerable. Check the list of vulnerable models.

 

If you mean that you are running a Virtual Appliance on an hypervisor like Vmware or Hyper V, you have to check with them as these vulnerabilities impacts the hardware directly.
