CVE-2026-55191

HighCVSS 8.7
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

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.

Risk Assessment

A malicious RDP server can crash the client or achieve code execution, posing a serious security threat.

Recommendation

Update FreeRDP to version 3.27.0 or later, which includes the fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.27.0, FreeRDP clients that negotiate RDPGFX AVC444 with an H.264 decoder backend calculate the intermediate YUV444 allocation size in libfreerdp/codec/h264.c with 32-bit multiplication in avc444_ensure_buffer. A malicious RDP server can supply surface dimensions for which piDstStride multiplied by padDstHeight wraps to a small nonzero value, causing winpr_aligned_recalloc to allocate an undersized buffer before YUV420CombineToYUV444 writes using the actual stride and rectangle dimensions. This can cause a client crash and may permit code execution through attacker-influenced heap corruption. This issue is fixed in version 3.27.0.
