It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-43591 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zoom Rooms. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-43591/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-43591/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-43591","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-43591/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-43591","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wc73-qprf-6fv8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Zoom Rooms macOS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges in Zoom Rooms for macOS due to improper privilege management.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Zoom","cpe":[{"product":"rooms","vendor":"zoom"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-280","name":"Improper Handling of Insufficient Permissions or Privileges"}],"description":"Improper privilege management  in Zoom Rooms for macOS before version 5.16.0 may allow an authenticated user to conduct an escalation of privilege via local access.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Zoom Rooms for macOS","id":"CVE-2023-43591","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"zoom:rooms","products":["zoom:rooms"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority because it is Unused","id":"CVE-2023-43607"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in Zoom Rooms for macOS","id":"CVE-2023-43590"},"products":["Zoom Rooms for macOS"],"published":"2023-11-14","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in Zoom Desktop Client for Windows and Zoom Rooms for Windows","id":"CVE-2023-39211","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation in Zoom Rooms for macOS Clients","id":"CVE-2022-36926","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation in Zoom Rooms for macOS Clients","id":"CVE-2022-36927","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation in Zoom Rooms for Windows Installers","id":"CVE-2022-36930","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation in Zoom Rooms Installer for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-36924","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation in the Zoom Rooms for Windows Client","id":"CVE-2022-28752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-17"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Zoom Workplace Apps and Rooms Clients - Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2024-39825","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-06-11","vendors":["Zoom Video Communications, Inc."]},"summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges in Zoom Rooms for macOS due to improper privilege management.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-43591/"}
