CVE-2026-53410 is a time-of-check to time-of-use race condition in the installation and uninstallation workflow of multiple Zoom products for Windows. The flaw affects Zoom Workplace for Windows before 7.0.5, Zoom Workplace VDI Client for Windows before 6.5.17 and 6.6.14 in their respective branches, Zoom Workplace VDI Plugin for Windows before 6.5.17 and 6.6.14 in their respective branches, Zoom Rooms for Windows before 7.0.5, and Remote Control for Zoom Contact Center for Windows before 7.0.0. An authenticated local user may be able to win the race during install or uninstall operations and cause privileged actions to be performed on attacker-controlled targets, resulting in elevation of privilege.
