Zoom Client < 4.6.12 Path Traversal

critical Nessus Plugin ID 139925

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by multiple path traversal vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of the Zoom Client installed on the remote host is prior to 4.6.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A path traversal vulnerability exists in the Zoom Client in the message processing. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a specially crafted chat message to a target user or group, to cause an arbitrary file write, which could potentially be abused to achieve arbitrary code execution.
(CVE-2020-6109)

- A path traversal vulnerability exists in the Zoom Client in the message processing. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a specially crafted chat message to a target user or group, to cause arbitrary binary planting, which could be abused to achieve arbitrary code execution.
(CVE-2020-6110)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Zoom Client for Meetings 4.6.12 or later.
