A vulnerability in the Cisco Webex Teams client, formerly Cisco Spark, could allow an malicious user to execute arbitrary commands on a targeted system.

Successful exploitation could cause the application to load libraries from the directory targeted by the URI link. The attacker could use this behavior to execute arbitrary commands on the system with the privileges of the targeted user if the attacker can place a crafted library in a directory that is accessible to the vulnerable system.
