Remote Full Client: Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command
CVE-2025-0065 is a high-severity improper neutralization of argument delimiters in a command vulnerability in Remote Full Client from TeamViewer, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 out of 10. It can be exploited with local access to the system by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists versions 15.62, 14.7.48799, 13.2.36226 as the first without the flaw, so updating Remote Full Client to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.56% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Remote Full Client to 15.62 or 14.7.48799 or 13.2.36226 or 12.0.259319, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Update Remote Host to 15.62 or 14.7.48799 or 13.2.36226 or 12.0.259319, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command
The product constructs a string for a command to be executed by a separate component in another control sphere, but it does not properly delimit the intended arguments, options, or switches within that command string.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Understand all the potential areas where untrusted inputs can enter your product: parameters or arguments, cookies, anything read from the network, environment variables, request headers as well as content, URL components, e-mail, files, databases, and any external systems that provide data to the application. Perform input validation at well-defined interfaces.
- Directly convert your input type into the expected data type, such as using a conversion function that translates a string into a number. After converting to the expected data type, ensure that the input's values fall within the expected range of allowable values and that multi-field consistencies are maintained.
- When exchanging data between components, ensure that both components are using the same character encoding. Ensure that the proper encoding is applied at each interface. Explicitly set the encoding you are using whenever the protocol allows you to do so.
