CVE-2025-30445

App crash via AirPlay type confusion

Published Apr 29, 2025 · Updated Apr 2, 2026

Type confusion in AirPlay on Apple operating systems before their March 2025 updates allows local-network attackers to terminate an app. The issue groups two type-confusion flaws, but Apple and the researcher have not disclosed their specific code loci or incorrect type operations. Reachability requires local-network access to an exposed AirPlay receiver; the reported direct consequence is an app crash.
