CVE-2025-64995
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA privilege escalation vulnerability was discovered in TeamViewer DEX (former 1E DEX), specifically within the 1E-Exchange-NomadClientHealth-ConfigureGeneralSetting instruction prior V3.4. Improper protection of the execution path on the local device allows attackers, with local access to the device during execution, to hijack the process and execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceA local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in TeamViewer DEX (formerly 1E DEX) in the 1E-Exchange-NomadClientHealth-ConfigureGeneralSetting instruction for versions prior to V3.4. The instruction lacks proper protection of its execution path on the local device, allowing an attacker with local access to hijack the process and execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM-level privileges.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify TeamViewer DEX installationLook for TeamViewer DEX or 1E DEX installation directory, typically under Program Files or Program Files (x86). Check Windows Registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for an entry named 'TeamViewer DEX' or '1E DEX'.Affected if TeamViewer DEX is installed and version is below 3.4.0
-
Determine installed version numberRight-click the TeamViewer DEX executable (typically DEX.exe or similar) in the installation folder, select Properties, then check the Details tab for the File Version. Alternatively, query the registry key found in the uninstall entry for the DisplayVersion value.Affected if Version displayed is less than 3.4 (e.g., 3.3.x, 3.2.x, etc.)
-
Verify the vulnerable instruction existsExamine the TeamViewer DEX configuration or instruction library for the presence of '1E-Exchange-NomadClientHealth-ConfigureGeneralSetting' instruction. This may be found in the installation folder under a Config, Instructions, or Templates subdirectory, or within the application database/configuration file.Affected if The 1E-Exchange-NomadClientHealth-ConfigureGeneralSetting instruction is present in the installation, indicating the vulnerable component is available.
A system is affected if TeamViewer DEX (formerly 1E DEX) is installed with a version number lower than 3.4, as versions prior to V3.4 contain the improperly protected execution path in the specified instruction.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped3.4
Upgrade TeamViewer DEX to version 3.4 or later to address the improper execution path protection. Additionally, ensure strict physical access controls and limit local administrator privileges to reduce the attack surface.
3.4
- 1. Back up all existing TeamViewer DEX configuration, policies, and any associated data before starting the upgrade process.
- 2. Obtain the TeamViewer DEX version 3.4 (or later) installer from the official TeamViewer download portal or your licensed distribution channel.
- 3. Consult the official TeamViewer DEX upgrade documentation for version 3.4 to ensure all prerequisites are met.
- 4. Execute the version 3.4 installer on the affected system, following the documented installation or upgrade procedure.
- 5. After installation, verify that the 1E-Exchange-NomadClientHealth-ConfigureGeneralSetting instruction is running the fixed version.
- 6. Confirm the installed version displays as 3.4 or later and validate that SYSTEM-level processes are no longer vulnerable to DLL hijacking.
