CVE-2026-3502
KEVmoderateArbitrary Code Execution via Unverified Updates in TrueConf Client
CISA: TrueConf Client Download of Code Without Integrity Check Vulnerability
CVE-2026-3502 is a download-of-code-without-integrity-check flaw (CWE-494) in TrueConf Client: the application downloads update code and applies it without verifying its integrity. An attacker who can influence the update delivery path can substitute a tampered update payload, and if that payload is executed or installed by the updater, arbitrary code runs in the context of the updating process or the user. The flaw is rated 7.8 (high) on CVSS 3.1 and affects TrueConf Client deployments, which are concentrated in enterprise and government video conferencing environments. CISA added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-04-02, and public reporting describes it as a zero-day used against Southeast Asian government networks by actors attributed to Chinese hackers, with CISA giving agencies roughly two weeks to remediate. Ransomware use is unknown, and no public proof-of-concept is known beyond the observed attacks; EPSS estimates a 5.7% chance of exploitation within 30 days (93rd percentile).
What to do: Apply the vendor's fix or mitigations per CISA's KEV required action and BOD 22-01; federal agencies had roughly two weeks from the 2026-04-02 KEV listing to remediate or discontinue use. Until patched, restrict and monitor the network path between TrueConf Clients and their update source, and check endpoints for unexpected update or installer activity and newly created processes. Identify which TrueConf Client versions are in use and confirm affected and fixed versions against the vendor's advisory, since the source data does not specify version ranges.

Order-of-magnitude estimate by the model from install counts, market share and public scan data it knows; verify before quoting.
TrueConf Client downloads application update code and applies it without performing verification. An attacker who is able to influence the update delivery path can substitute a tampered update payload. If the payload is executed or installed by the updater, this may result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the updating process or user.
