DescriptionCVE.org

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.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Zscaler Client Connector (ZCC) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker run arbitrary code within the ZCC process context, per a vendor-reported (Zscaler) advisory carrying a CVSS 9.1 rating. The flaw stems from improper input validation (CWE-20) and requires no privileges or user interaction, though exact fixed versions are described only through Zscaler's release summary rather than a discrete CVE-pinned build. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no authentication, elevated privileges, or user interaction is required, and the description explicitly states an unauthenticated, unprivileged user can trigger it - the prerequisite is network reachability to a device running an affected version of Zscaler Client Connector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals point to a genuinely high-priority issue but with important gaps. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade Zscaler Client Connector to the fixed release identified in Zscaler's Client Connector app release summary (https://help.zscaler.com/zscaler-client-connector/client-connector-app-release-summary-2026); an exact CVE-pinned fixed version number is not provided in the input, so patch to the latest release listed there and treat it as 'patch available per vendor advisory.' Because ZCC is centrally managed, push the updated build through the Zscaler admin portal / MDM to enforce the minimum approved app version across the fleet rather than relying on per-device updates. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running Zscaler Client Connector and assess which are business-critical (finance, healthcare, government, energy sectors face highest exploitation risk). …
