CVE-2025-24132Known exploitationPublic exploit

App termination via unchecked encryption key length

Published Apr 30, 2025 · Updated Apr 2, 2026

Stack buffer overflow in Apple AirPlay Audio before 2.7.1 and Video SDKs before 3.6.0.126 allows remote attackers to terminate apps. The AES CTR encryption handler assumes a SETUP packet encryption key is 16 bytes and places an unchecked larger key in a 16-byte stack buffer. The attack requires local-network access to an AirPlay receiver; the published crash proof of concept does not pass receivers that require PIN pairing.
