Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-0065 involves improper neutralization of argument delimiters (CWE-88) in the TeamViewer_service.exe component of TeamViewer Clients prior to version 15.62 for Windows. Published on January 28, 2025, the vulnerability enables argument injection, with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact on system confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

An attacker requires local unprivileged access on a targeted Windows system to exploit this flaw. With low attack complexity and no user interaction needed, they can inject malicious arguments into the service process, achieving privilege escalation from a low-privileged account to higher privileges, potentially granting full system control.

TeamViewer's security bulletin (TV-2025-1001) at https://www.teamviewer.com/en/resources/trust-center/security-bulletins/tv-2025-1001/ addresses the vulnerability, recommending an update to TeamViewer Client version 15.62 or later to mitigate the argument injection risk.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing can discover argument-injection flaws in command-construction code but does not stop their introduction.

Input validation directly stops construction of command strings containing unneutralized delimiters or injected arguments.

finds

Security testing can detect argument injection but does not prevent it at the source.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and command construction practices that directly prevent argument injection.

prevents

Application security requirements include explicit rules for safe command-line argument handling and escaping.

prevents

Secure architecture principles discourage unsafe command invocation patterns and favor safer APIs.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly require proper neutralization of command arguments, directly eliminating CWE-88.
