Multiple vulnerabilities on affected versions of Zscaler Client Connector allow remote code execution, giving an unauthenticated, unprivileged user the ability to execute arbitrary code in the ZCC context.
Multiple vulnerabilities on affected versions of Zscaler Client Connector allow local privilege escalation, giving an unprivileged user the ability to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context.
A locally exploitable buffer overflow bug can cause a local denial-of-service attack on affected versions of Zscaler Client Connector on Android and ChromeOS.
CVE-2026-40955 is an integer underflow vulnerability in the traffic parsing function of Secure Access clients prior to 14.55. Attackers with intimate knowledge of and total control over the tunnel protocol can create a non-persistent DoS against their client.
An incorrect startup configuration of affected versions of Zscaler Client Connector on Windows may cause a limited amount of traffic from being inspected under rare circumstances.
Improper validation of user-supplied input in the ZIA Admin UI could allow an authenticated administrator to initiate backend functions through specific input fields in limited scenarios.
Improper neutralization of special elements in user-supplied input within the ZIA Admin UI could allow an authenticated administrator to access or retrieve unauthorized internal information in rare conditions.
A health check port on Zscaler Client Connector on Windows, versions 4.6 < 4.6.0.216 and 4.7 < 4.7.0.47, which under specific circumstances was not released after use, allowed traffic to potentially bypass ZCC forwarding controls.
An improper verification of cryptographic signature in Zscaler's SAML authentication mechanism on the server-side allowed an authentication abuse.
An improper verification of a loaded library in Zscaler Client Connector on Mac < 4.2.0.241 may allow a local attacker to elevate their privileges.
An Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS allows OS Command Injection. This issue affects Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS <4.2.
An Improper Validation of signature in Zscaler Client Connector on Windows allows an authenticated user to disable anti-tampering. This issue affects Client Connector on Windows <4.2.0.190.
The Zscaler Updater process does not validate the digital signature of the installer before execution, allowing arbitrary code to be locally executed. This affects Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS <4.2.
In certain cases, Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) can be disabled by PowerShell commands with admin rights. This affects Zscaler Client Connector on Windows <4.2.1
While copying individual autoupdater log files, reparse point check was missing which could result into crafted attacks, potentially leading to a local privilege escalation. This issue affects Zscaler Client Connector on Windows <4.2.0.190.
Anti-tampering can be disabled under certain conditions without signature validation. This affects Zscaler Client Connector <4.2.0.190 with anti-tampering enabled.
DHCP can add routes to a client’s routing table via the classless static route option (121). VPN-based security solutions that rely on routes to redirect traffic can be forced to leak traffic over the physical interface. An attacker on the same local network can read, disrupt, or possibly modify network traffic that was expected to be protected by the VPN.
An Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS allows a denial of service of the Client Connector binary and thus removing client functionality.This issue affects Client Connector on MacOS: before 3.4.
An Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS during the upgrade process may allow a Local Execution of Code.This issue affects Client Connector on MacOS: before 3.4.
An Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on Mac allows a system file to be overwritten.This issue affects Zscaler Client Connector on Mac : before 3.7.
An Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on Windows allows a system file to be overwritten.This issue affects Client Connector on Windows: before 3.7.
An Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value vulnerability in Zscaler Client Connector on Windows during the Repair App functionality may allow Local Execution of Code.This issue affects Client Connector on Windows: before 4.1.0.62.
An out-of-bounds write to heap in the pacparser library on Zscaler Client Connector on Mac may lead to arbitrary code execution.
A fallback mechanism in code sign checking on macOS may allow arbitrary code execution. This issue affects Zscaler Client Connector on MacOS prior to 4.2.
The anti-tampering functionality of the Zscaler Client Connector can be disabled under certain conditions when an uninstall password is enforced. This affects Zscaler Client Connector on Windows prior to 4.2.0.209
Anti-tampering protection of the Zscaler Client Connector can be bypassed under certain conditions when running the Repair App functionality. This affects Zscaler Client Connector on Windows prior to 4.2.1
The ZScaler service is susceptible to a local privilege escalation vulnerability found in the ZScalerService process. Fixed Version: Mac ZApp 4.2.0.241 and later.
