CVE-2025-0151Network attack vector

Authenticated privilege escalation via use-after-free

Published Mar 11, 2025 · Updated Mar 11, 2025

Use-after-free in Zoom Workplace Apps allows remote authenticated users to escalate privileges through network access. Zoom has not disclosed the affected component, object-lifetime error, or network message that reaches the freed memory. A low-privileged authenticated session and a high-complexity sequence are required; success elevates authority beyond the attacker’s original security scope.
