Zoom Down: The video-conferencing has been down in most countries of the world.

Zoom shows a view of problem reports submitted in the past 24 hours compared to the typical volume of reports by time of day. It is common for some problems to be reported throughout the day. Downdetector only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than the typical volume for that time of day.

The video-conferencing app is yet to provide an official response to the complaints.

Zoom users address the issue. One wrote, “can’t join zoom, getting ‘An unknown erros occurred.” Another zoom user wrote, “cannot log into Zoom gateway errors.”

Earlier zoom released an upgrade for its Mac platform application. The most recent patch closes a critical security hole that could have given hackers full access to a Mac user’s system.

A critical security hole that allowed someone with bad intent to acquire root-level access to users’ Mac computers had to be patched, according to a report on the well-known cloud-based video conferencing service.

The hackers would then be able to take over their systems as a result. It appears that the Zoom application’s auto-updater program, which possessed root-level access to the system, was the source of this vulnerability.
