Zoom: Remote Code Execution with XMPP Stanza Smuggling
It appears that Gloox, a relative low-level XMPP-client C library, rolled much of its Unicode and XML parsing itself, which made such vulnerabilities more likely. There maybe good reasons to not re-use existing modules and rely on external libraries, especially if you target constraint low-end embedded devices, but you should always be aware of the drawbacks. And the Zoom client typically does not run on those.
