CVE-2025-49212 is a critical insecure deserialization vulnerability in Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption PolicyServer. The flaw is associated with the PolicyValueTableSerializationBinder class and stems from insufficient validation of untrusted input before deserialization. A remote attacker can send specially crafted serialized data to the exposed service and trigger unsafe deserialization in a pre-authentication context, resulting in arbitrary code execution on affected installations. The issue is distinct from, but similar in nature to, CVE-2025-49220, which affects a different method. Affected Endpoint Encryption PolicyServer versions older than 6.0.0.4013 without Patch 1 Update 6 are vulnerable.
