Zoom update closes security gaps

Urgent installation required

2022/05/02

Vulnerabilities in the Zoom software allow attackers to escalate rights or gain unauthorised access to information.

To close this vulnerability, the HRZ urgently recommends an update of the Zoom software.

For computers managed by the HRZ, a software package will be available for download from the Matrix software depot from Tuesday, 03.05.2022, which – should it not be activated manually earlier – will be installed automatically on Wednesday.

Employees with non-managed computers are urged to download the latest version (version 5.10.4) from the Zoom Download Centre.
