CVE-2026-63633
HighCVSS 7.7Summary
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.
Risk Assessment
A malicious RDP server can crash the client or achieve code execution, posing a serious threat to system integrity.
Recommendation
Update FreeRDP to version 3.28.0 or later, which includes the fix.
Original NVD description (English source)
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.28.0, freerdp_dsp_decode_opus in libfreerdp/codec/dsp.c calls Stream_EnsureRemainingCapacity on context->common.buffer even though opus_decode writes decoded PCM into the caller-supplied out stream. A malicious RDP server that negotiates WAVE_FORMAT_OPUS with a client built with WITH_OPUS enabled and WITH_DSP_FFMPEG disabled can make libopus write a large decoded frame beyond the 4096-byte StreamPool_Take destination used by channels/rdpsnd/client/rdpsnd_main.c. This can corrupt the client heap, crash the client, and may permit code execution. This issue is fixed in version 3.28.0.
