Description

The version of Zoom Client for Meetings installed on the remote host is between 4.1.27507.0627 and 4.4.52595.0425. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ZSB-19003 advisory.

 - A vulnerability in the Zoom macOS client could allow an attacker to download malicious software to a victim's device. The vulnerability is due to improper input validation and validation of downloaded software in the ZoomOpener helper application. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability to prompt a victim's device to download files on the attacker's behalf. A successful exploit is only possible if the victim previously uninstalled the Zoom Client. Zoom addressed this issue in the 4.4.52595.0425 client release. Users can help keep themselves secure by applying current updates or downloading the latest Zoom software with all current security updates from https://zoom.us/download . (CVE-2019-13567)
