Request for pardon for being absent from today’s TTF call
by Fred Kwadwo Aazore Aug. 5, 2019

Aug. 5, 2019

Dear all, I am really sorry for not being able to join today’s TTF call. I was driving to Accra(Ghana) and thought I could make it there on time to attend the meeting but I could not. I therefore ask all and sundry to pardon me for this. I hope to join subsequent calls and on time. Thank you.

Test your browser config if it launches Zoom automatically with camera and mic enabled
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh July 11, 2019

July 11, 2019

The security researcher Jonathan Leitschuh who publicly disclosed the Zoom security vulnerability has noted that depending on your browser setting on whether to always open Zoom links with the associated app is on, a malicious webpage (that could be hidden in a iframe) can automatically launch Zoom with your camera enabled without asking. This is true for Windows as well as for Mac for Firefox and Chrome browsers. As he noted in his tweet at https://twitter.com/JLLeitschuh/status/1149123386855104516 Here is a Proof of Concept Link to see whether Zoom will autolaunch with your camera and mic enabled : https://jlleitschuh.org/zoom_vulnerability_poc/zoompwn_iframe.html If your browser settings are set to always these type of Zoom links with the associated app, you *will* be automatically launched into a Zoom conference with your camera enabled. How to prevent Zoom from auto-opening Zoom links on a webpage : In Mozilla Firefox, - 1) Click the menu button [image: Fx57Menu] and choose Options. - 2) In the General panel, go to the *Applications* section. 3) Search for the Content Type *zoommtg* and select it. 4) Click on the Action column in the *zoommtg* row to change the action to "*always ask*" /twitter.com/JLLeitschuh/status/114912338685510dsds [image: firefox-turning-off-automatic-open-zoom.png] In Google Chrome: This is harder for Google Chrome which saves such settings in a preferences file which isn't accessible from the browser. >From https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/114662 "Chrome allows external applications and web services to open certain links. For example, certain links can open a site like Gmail or a program like iTunes. If you set a default action for a type of link but want to delete it, clear your browsing data <https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2392709> ( https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2392709) and select "Cookies and other site data." Here's the more "hacky" way: 1) Navigate to chrome://version/ and find the path listed under "Profile Path". 2) Quit Chrome, open that directory, and then open the "Preferences" file. This will appear be a long line of text in a text editor. 3) Look for the string "zoommtg":false or "zoomrc":false. If it either exist, remove them. If there is a comma immediately after either string, remove it as well. 4) Save the file. Visit Jonathan Leitschuh's Proof of Concept page at * https://jlleitschuh.org/zoom_vulnerability_poc/zoompwn_iframe.html <https://jlleitschuh.org/zoom_vulnerability_poc/zoompwn_iframe.html>* to see if your browser asks to open Zoom. This is what you will see in Mozilla Firefox : [image: firefox-ask-to-launch-zoom.png] and this is what you will see in Google Chrome: [image: chrome-ask-to-launch-zoom.png]

Fwd: AW: [EURO-Discuss] Zoom Structural Vulnerability Discovered
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond July 11, 2019

July 11, 2019

Hello all, discussions are heating up on the topic of Zoom both in NCSG mailing list, and on the EURALO discuss mailing list. Isn't this issue more urgent than waiting for a future TTF call, the date of which is, at present, not even set? At least a call from the TTF to ICANN Tech Team to write a Blog of what their risk assessment is, with regards to this conferencing technology? In the meantime, conversations about this are springing up on several other mailing lists... Kindest regards, Olivier -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: AW: [EURO-Discuss] Zoom Structural Vulnerability Discovered Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2019 14:12:57 +0000 From: Mühlberg, Annette <annette.muehlberg(a)verdi.de> To: Jean-Jacques Subrenat <jjs(a)dyalog.net>, ncsg-discuss(a)listserv.syr.edu <ncsg-discuss(a)listserv.syr.edu>, Paul Rosenzweig <paul.rosenzweig(a)redbranchconsulting.com>, EURALO LIST <euro-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org>, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl(a)gih.com>, maureen.hilyard(a)gmail.com <maureen.hilyard(a)gmail.com> Dear All, +1 for JJS: set up a specifications sheet for a desirable conferencing tool, based on needs expressed by the multi-stakeholder community, and publish that as a tender. Offers received could then be reviewed not only by Staff, but in consultation with ACs and SOs. Such needs include data privacy, technical stability and preferably open standards.

Then, a recommendation to Chairs of ACs and SOs: ICANN Board and CEO could be requested to set up a specifications sheet for a desirable conferencing tool, based on needs expressed by the multi-stakeholder community, and publish that as a tender. Offers received could then be reviewed not only by Staff, but in consultation with ACs and SOs. This would get us closer to what we, collectively, consider as the appropriate tool for the numerous conference calls held throughout ICANN. Jean-Jacques Subrenat.

Look at the timeline in the Medium post. They only sought to fix it after the vulnerability drew media attention.

"A vulnerability in the Mac Zoom Client allows any malicious website to enable your camera without your permission... This vulnerability allows any website to forcibly join a user to a Zoom call, with their video camera activated, without the user's permission. On top of this, this vulnerability would have allowed any webpage to DOS (Denial of Service) a Mac by repeatedly joining a user to an invalid call. Additionally, if you’ve ever installed the Zoom client and then uninstalled it, you still have a localhost web server on your machine that will happily re-install the Zoom client for you, without requiring any user interaction on your behalf besides visiting a webpage. This re-install ‘feature’ continues to work to this day." Read more here: https://medium.com/@jonathan.leitschuh/zoom-zero-day-4-million-webcams-mayb…

Platform for Working Group on Internet Governance
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond July 10, 2019

July 10, 2019

Dear colleagues, in Marrakesh, the Cross Community Engagement Group on Internet Governance discussed its future with the Board Working Group on Internet Governance. The decision was to use the Engagement Group as a platform for sharing information about Internet Governance. We already do that using email. Unfortunately, there are an increasing number of parallel tracks and we often drop the ball, or lose a track altogether. My enquiry is as follows: the Engagement Group on Internet Governance has a LOT of different tracks that are being followed, from IGF, to CSTD, UN General Assembly, ITU, WTO, etc. etc. So many tracks, that sometimes the history of what is happening in these global conferences is being lost - there are just too many threads. We've tried putting the threads on WIKI pages, but we are faced with two hurdles: 1. many people in the working group are not versed in editing WIKIs. 2. staff does not have time to update WIKIs given the multiplication of threads. We do not have a "curator" to make sense of the avalanche of information that's coming our way. As a result, what I wanted to ask you is whether you can recommend any tool that would help with our ability to track several threads and make these easily accessible to participants, including historical perspectives, without creating an undue amount of work for ourselves. Our problem is basically one of Knowledge Management. Kindest regards, Olivier

Dear TTF Members, Please find below information regarding TTF action items related to Zoom, from the Meetings Team: 1. Give instructions on how to download and share the automatic transcription. * Attached 2. Confirm whether recordings can be played from a mobile device. * Yes, if a recording link is shared, it can be opened in a browser on a mobile phone and played back. 3. How to use Zoom on low bandwidth and/or cheaper mobile. What is the usage and is there a work around? * To improve audio experience, turn video off. * https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201179966-System-Requirements-for… * https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362893-How-much-bandwidth-do-I… 4. Confirm what protocol Zoom is using for automated transcriptions. * Zoom has confirmed it's a third party providing the service. Zoom does not disclose which third party. The Meetings Team still has to get more information about the use of screen readers and the request to allow for ongoing chat and post recordings to YouTube. Thank you, Evin
