Low risk21th percentile - higher than 21% of all known CVEs
Summary
FreeRDP before 3.32.0 contains a client-side heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in general_LumaToYUV444 and general_ChromaV2ToYUV444. A malicious RDP server can send RDPGFX AVC444 or AVC444v2 frames with odd-height region rects ending at surface height, causing writes past the U/V planes.
Risk Assessment
The vulnerability allows corruption of client heap memory, potentially leading to crashes or arbitrary code execution in the context of the RDP client process. Connecting to a malicious RDP server is sufficient to trigger the attack, making it easy to exploit.
Recommendation
Update FreeRDP client to version 3.32.0 or later. Until patched, avoid connecting to untrusted RDP servers.
Other vulnerabilities in FreeRDP
See all- CVE-2026-23732High
FreeRDP before version 3.21.0 has a vulnerability in FastGlyph parsing where data length is not validated against the minimum size implied by cx/cy. A malicious server can trigger a client-side global buffer overflow, causing a crash (DoS).
- CVE-2026-22856High
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.20.1, a race in the serial channel IRP thread tracking allows a heap use‑after‑free when one thread removes an entry from serial->IrpThreads while another reads it. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.20.1.
- CVE-2013-4119High
FreeRDP before 1.1.0-beta+2013071101 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) by disconnecting before authentication has finished.
- CVE-2013-4118High
FreeRDP before 1.1.0-beta1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via NULL pointer dereference, leading to application crash.
- CVE-2014-0250High
Multiple integer overflows in client/X11/xf_graphics.c in FreeRDP allow remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via the width and height to the xf_Pointer_New or xf_Bitmap_Decompress function, which causes an incorrect amount of memory to be allocated.
- CVE-2026-91949Critical
FreeRDP server versions before 3.31.0 contain a protocol negotiation bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to establish RDSTLS connections despite server policy disabling them. Attackers can send incompatible protocol requests, receive negotiation failures, then complete TLS handshake and enter RDSTLS to bypass pre-authentication transport restrictions.
- CVE-2026-63633Critical
In FreeRDP before 3.28.0, freerdp_dsp_decode_opus calls Stream_EnsureRemainingCapacity on the context buffer even though opus_decode writes to the caller-supplied stream. A malicious RDP server negotiating WAVE_FORMAT_OPUS can cause large decoded frames to be written beyond the allocated buffer, leading to client heap corruption, crash, and potential code execution.
- CVE-2026-55194Critical
In FreeRDP before 3.27.0, rpc_client_recv_fragment ensures response reassembly stream capacity using only the server-declared alloc_hint rather than the actual StubLength. A malicious TS Gateway can send a response with a small alloc_hint and a much larger frag_length, causing a buffer overflow in the pdu->s buffer. This can crash the client and may permit code execution.
- CVE-2026-55191Critical
In FreeRDP before 3.27.0, clients negotiating RDPGFX AVC444 calculate the intermediate YUV444 allocation size using 32-bit multiplication in avc444_ensure_buffer. A malicious RDP server can supply surface dimensions causing integer wrap, leading to an undersized buffer allocation. This can cause a client crash and may permit code execution.
- CVE-2026-73242Critical
FreeRDP, a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol, prior to version 3.30.0 has a vulnerability in the kerberos_DecryptMessage function that fails to bound the peer-controlled GSS Wrap-token EC field before using it with RRC in IOV pointer offsets. A malicious RDP peer can trigger out-of-bounds reads and in-place writes during CredSSP/NLA Kerberos decryption.
Original NVD description (English source)
FreeRDP before 3.32.0 contains a client-side heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in general_LumaToYUV444 and general_ChromaV2ToYUV444 that allows malicious RDP servers to corrupt client memory. Attackers can send RDPGFX AVC444 or AVC444v2 frames with odd-height region rects ending at surface height to write past U/V planes, enabling heap corruption and potential code execution.
