CVE-2026-53413, dubbed Zoomsday, is a stack-based buffer overflow in the Zoom Clients annotation-processing functionality. The flaw is reachable through Zoom's proprietary annotation protocol during a meeting. In CAnnoFormatBlock::Deserialize, an attacker-controlled 32-bit character count governs copying annotation formatting data into fixed 128-byte buffers without validating that the supplied length fits. An oversized annotation object can overwrite adjacent stack memory, including control-flow data. Insufficient validation of annotation-message origin and dispatch can permit malicious annotation objects to be deserialized by unintended meeting participants.
