  - Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource in the TeamViewer Client (Full and Host) of TeamViewer Remote

    SYSTEM privileges via leveraging the MSI rollback mechanism. The vulnerability only applies to the Remote Management
    features: Backup, Monitoring, and Patch Management. (CVE-2025-36537)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
