Works well; however, does vinegar harm cement based pavers?

Being acidic, it *does* attack them; however, weak as it is, it
would take many, many applications to notice anything.

You can kill the moss with a dilute solution of chlorox, don't know
if it does weeds too. Salt - table or rock - should do the weeds
and keep them out for a while once it is watered in, maybe moss too.
And as a last resort, there is always Round-Up

Why is Roundup a "last resort"?

Think "tongue in cheek".
