Public bug reported: open-vm-tools 13.0.10 was released on Jan 20, 2026 - based on build 25056151
There are no new features in the open-vm-tools 13.0.10 release. This is primarily a maintenance release that addresses a fix. A minor enhancement has been made for Guest OS Customization. The DeployPkg plugin has been updated to handle a new cloud-init error code that signals a recoverable error and allow cloud-init to finish running Starting with cloud-init version 23.4, an error code was introduced to signal a recoverable error. open-vm-tools interprets this error code as a cloud-init execution failure, so continues executing guest customization with a VM reboot in the end. This issue is resolved in this release. During Linux guest customization, open-vm-tools now correctly waits for cloud-init execution to complete, even when cloud-init encounters recoverable errors. This addresses open-vm-tools issue #768 (https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/issues/768) - Make GetCloudinitStatus() more robust.
