TeamViewer 15.51 < 15.54 Improper Fingerprint Validation (tv-2024-1004)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 204789

Language:

Synopsis

The remote MacOS host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of TeamViewer Client installed on the remote MacOS host is between 15.51 and 15.53. It is, therefore, affected by an improper fingerprint validation vulnerability. It could allow a local attacker with administrative user rights to further elevate privileges (e.g. to root) via executable sideloading.

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

Solution

Upgrade TeamViewer Client to version 15.54 or later.
