Three flaws found in Cisco's Webex platform could have allowed people to secretly "Ghost" meetings without being seen.
For customers who run an on premises version of Webex software, the company has issued patches for Webex Meetings Server.
Until being patched, the security holes affected scheduled meetings with unique meeting URLs and Webex Personal Rooms.
For its analysis, IBM said that it was able to demonstrate this ghosting problem in MacOS, Windows, and the iOS version of Webex Meetings applications, and in the Webex Room Kit appliance.
To better protect their virtual meetings, organizations and users should consider the following recommendations from IBM. These tips are directed toward Webex but also apply to other virtual meeting and collaboration tools.
