Finally, on July 16, 2019, FOUR DAYS LATER THAN PROMISED, Zoom has updated to v4.4.55387.0716 and UNinstalled the dangerous web server they installed into user's systems. Note: It's possible the delay was enabled because Apple killed the Zoom local web server with a recent MRT (Malware Removal Tool) update. MRTConfigData is, at this moment, up to v1.4.7.
AND it turns out that OTHER apps have pulled the same bad move and installed THEIR own local web servers as well, leading to similar potential security holes. Apple has pushed out two further MRT updates in pursuit of killing these further web server processes. THANK YOU APPLE!
You can check your system's current version of MRTConfigData by going to:
Menu/About This Mac/System Report.../Installations
Then wait for the list to fill. Scroll down the list to the bottom of the MRTConfigData sub-list to see version number and date installed.
If you find your system is NOT updating MRTConfigData, check out this article:
