Zoom Annotation Flaws Could Let a Meeting Participant Hijack Another Attendee's Client
A Security researchers disclosed three Zoom annotation flaws enabling zero-click client hijacking; Zoom shipped fixes in June and July with no exploitation reported.
Researchers at A Security found three flaws in Zoom's annotation feature: CVE-2026-53413 (CVSS 8.3, buffer over-write), CVE-2026-53414 (CVSS 6.5, buffer over-read), and CVE-2026-53415 (CVSS 8.3, use-after-free). A crafted drawing object sent over the wrong message channel can overwrite adjacent memory and hijack another attendee's client with no user interaction. Fixes shipped in Zoom Workplace 7.1.5/7.0.6, VDI Client 7.0.11/6.6.16, and Zoom Rooms/Meeting SDK 7.1.0+ during June and July. No exploitation has been reported and the flaws are absent from CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
