## Overview

A time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition combined with improper symbolic link handling in the privileged helper of TeamViewer Full Client and Host prior to version 15.83 for macOS allows a local attacker with low privileges to bypass installer package verification and install a malicious package. Successful exploitation can lead to local privilege escalation to root.

## Affected

- `full_client < 15.83`
- `full_client >= 14.7.0 < 14.7.48868`
- `full_client >= 13.2.0 < 13.2.154007`
- `Host < 15.83`
- `Host >= 14.7.0 < 14.7.48868`
- `Host >= 13.2.0 < 13.2.154007`
