CVE intelligence and bounded remediation
CVE-2025-63951 — Sourcefabric Phoniebox security vulnerability
An insecure deserialization vulnerability exists in the rss-mp3.php script of the MiczFlor RPi-Jukebox-RFID project through commit 4b2334f0ae0e87c0568876fc41c48c38aa9a7014 (2025-10-07). The 'rss' GET parameter receives data that is passed directly to the unserialize() function without validation. This allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary PHP objects, causing the application to process them and leading to errors or a denial of service.

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.
