Threat & Defense at a Glance
Threat & Defense Details
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
SI-2 requires timely flaw remediation, directly mitigating CVE-2025-0149 by applying patches for the insufficient data authenticity verification as specified in the Zoom security bulletin.
SI-7 enforces integrity verification of information to detect unauthorized modifications or inauthentic data, preventing DoS exploitation due to insufficient authenticity checks.
SC-5 implements denial-of-service protections such as traffic validation and rate limiting, countering the network-based DoS by unprivileged users targeting unverified data authenticity.
MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI
Why these techniques?
Vulnerability enables remote, unauthenticated exploitation of Zoom apps via insufficient data authenticity verification to cause denial of service, directly mapping to application/system exploitation for endpoint DoS.
NVD Description
Insufficient verification of data authenticity in some Zoom Workplace Apps may allow an unprivileged user to conduct a denial of service via network access.
