Yeah, I wouldn't even call this a vulnerability. I'd call it malware. Nothing should secretly reinstall deleted apps without user interaction. Never. The user expressed the intention to delete the app, and you're undoing it without their permission? Deliberately defeating expressed user intent. Malware. Period. It's the Zoom Trojan.
