It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-39820 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zoom Workplace Desktop. 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-2024-39820/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-39820/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-39820","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-39820/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-39820","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xpq2-j352-wchr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Zoom Workplace macOS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can cause a denial of service in Zoom Workplace for macOS via an uncontrolled search path element in the installer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Zoom","cpe":[{"product":"workplace_desktop","vendor":"zoom"}],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"Uncontrolled search path element in the installer for Zoom Workplace Desktop App for macOS before version 6.0.10 may allow an authenticated user to conduct a denial of service 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":"Zoom Workplace Desktop App for macOS - Uncontrolled Search Path Element","id":"CVE-2024-39820","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"zoom:workplace_desktop","products":["zoom:workplace_desktop"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Zoom Workplace App for Windows and Zoom Rooms App for Windows - Race Condition","id":"CVE-2024-39821"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Zoom Workplace Apps and SDK for Windows - Improper Privilege Management","id":"CVE-2024-39819"},"products":["Zoom Workplace Desktop App for macOS"],"published":"2024-07-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin for Windows - Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2026-53412","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Path traversal in Zoom Workplace","id":"CVE-2026-30903","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-11"},{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"Zoom Workplace for Linux - Improper Certificate Validation","id":"CVE-2025-46788","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-10"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Zoom Workplace Desktop App for Windows - Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2024-39827","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-15"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["Zoom Communications, Inc"]},"summary":"An authenticated local user can cause a denial of service in Zoom Workplace for macOS via an uncontrolled search path element in the installer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-39820/"}
