Improper input validation in Zscaler Client Connector for Android and ChromeOS (builds prior to 4.2.0.152) lets an attacker with elevated local privileges on the endpoint feed malformed input to the connector and bypass Zscaler's traffic inspection and access controls, with a CVSS 8.1 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L) rating that reflects total loss of the security control's integrity. The flaw is not remotely exploitable and requires high privileges (root or equivalent device-admin context) on the affected Android or ChromeOS device, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is 0.12% (2nd percentile) and CISA SSVC records exploitation 'none', automatable 'no' with total technical impact — a low-likelihood, patch-promptly issue rather than an emergency.
