Vendor
VMWare

Describe the issue/link to bug reported to vendor
VMWare is blocking download except based on if you have certain headers...

Additional context
Figured out the special sequence of headers needed, and it was killing my master branch's CI build

curl 'https://www.vmware.com/go/getworkstation-linux' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' --compressed -H 'Connection: keep-alive' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla'

you'll get this error if you don't have them:

$ curl 'https://www.vmware.com/go/getworkstation-linux' -I
