Hi Judith,

 

Your timing is impeccable.  The ICANN Engineering & IT team has been aware of the vulnerability since it was identified and today published a blog on the matter.  It is available here.

Subject: [Ext] Zoom Vulnerability

 

HI Mark and Sara,

 

Many people have been asking about the recent Zoom Vulnerability and it would be

great if ICANN IT or the Meetings Team could write a blog post about this and

what is their risk assessment of this issue.  I know Zoom patched the hole for

the MAC but not for the mobile browsers. In the meantime, conversations about

this are springing up on several other mailing lists, and so a blog by the IT

team would be very helpful to explain what happened and what fixes were put in

place and how ICANN IT is dealing with this.

 

I look forward to hearing from you.

 

Best,

 

Judith
