CVE-2025-34449 — Genymotion Scrcpy security vulnerability

Critical CVSS 9.1

Genymobile/scrcpy versions up to and including 3.3.3, prior to commit 3e40b24, contain a buffer overflow vulnerability in the sc_device_msg_deserialize() function. A compromised device can send crafted messages that cause out-of-bounds reads, which may result in memory corruption or a denial-of-service condition. This vulnerability may allow further exploitation on the host system.

Matched remediation archetype

Unsafe deserialization and object reconstruction

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Inventory serialization formats accepted from requests, queues, caches, files, cookies, and cross-service messages.
  • Trace whether untrusted input can select classes, types, callbacks, constructors, or object hooks during decoding.
  • Identify signing, schema validation, trust-boundary, and compatibility settings for each decoder.

Remediate safely

  • Replace native object deserialization with a data-only format and explicit schema validation.
  • If replacement is not immediate, use a safe decoder with a minimal type allowlist and disable polymorphic or executable hooks.
  • Update the affected library and add inert tests for unknown types, extra fields, malformed nesting, and unsigned data.
