Two vulnerabilities in Zoom could lead to code execution
I wonder. Are all the vulnerabilities and issues with Zoom because of its popularity?<p>Everybody is using zoom these days and in my opinion it's because it has an excellent user experience.<p>I'm wondering if something like Cisco WebEx is just as "broken" but everyone doesn't have their eyes on it.<p>One thing for sure. We need a way to run desktop applications in isolated containers in the same way mobile apps are run.<p>I joined a WebEx meeting the other day, downloading it's client. And after the meeting a little window popped up with my next meetings.<p>Without permission it'd hooked into my outlook calendar.<p>At the the very least, we could have some sort of virtual file system that by default applications only see.<p>I'm sure the capability exists in windows, because there's a mod management tool for Skyrim I've used where it creates a virtual folder for all your activated mods and the game itself sees that virtual folder when running.<p>As an aside, remember when Skype was the most popular audio/video chat app in the world?<p>Or even MSN messenger?<p>I also remember Hangouts getting popular but then stagnating in using 100% CPU and setting fire to your laps.
