Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Symlink following in the installer for the Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin macOS Universal installer before version 6.3.14, 6.4.14, and 6.5.10 in their respective tracks may allow an authenticated user to conduct a disclosure of information via network access.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

This is a symlink following vulnerability in the Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin macOS Universal installer. The vulnerability allows an authenticated local user to manipulate symlinks during the installation process to cause the installer to read or write files outside the intended installation directory, leading to unauthorized information disclosure.

MitigationUpdate Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin to version 6.3.14 (or later 6.3.x), 6.4.14 (or later 6.4.x), or 6.5.10 (or later 6.5.x) depending on the track in use. Prior to updating, ensure the installer is sourced from a trusted channel.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check if Zoom VDI Plugin is installed
    Look for the Zoom VDI Plugin application on the system. On macOS, check /Applications/ folder for 'Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin' or similar VDI-related Zoom packages. You can also run: ls /Applications/ | grep -i zoom
    Affected if The Zoom VDI Plugin application is present on the system
  2. Identify the installed Zoom VDI Plugin version
    Right-click the Zoom VDI Plugin app, select 'Get Info', and note the version number displayed. Alternatively, run: defaults read /Applications/Zoom\ Workplace\ VDI\ Plugin.app/Contents/Info CFBundleShortVersionString (adjust path if different)
    Affected if The version number is less than 6.3.14, OR between 6.4.0 and 6.4.13 inclusive, OR between 6.5.0 and 6.5.9 inclusive
  3. Confirm this is the macOS Universal installer variant
    Check the app bundle architecture or installer package type. Run: file /Applications/Zoom\ Workplace\ VDI\ Plugin.app/Contents/MacOS/Zoom\ Workplace\ VDI\ Plugin (or inspect the app bundle for Universal binary indicators)
    Affected if The application is a Universal binary (containing both Intel and Apple Silicon code) and is the VDI-specific installer variant
  4. Verify the installation was performed using the VDI plugin installer
    Check installation receipts or logs for evidence that the VDI-specific installer was used. Inspect /Library/Receipts or the installer history: pkgutil -- receipts | grep -i vdi
    Affected if VDI-specific installation records are found in system receipts

You are affected if the Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin for macOS is installed and its version falls within any of the vulnerable ranges: below 6.3.14, 6.4.0-6.4.13, or 6.5.0-6.5.9.
