Summary

FreeRDP before 3.29.0 contains an out-of-bounds heap read vulnerability in the UVC H.264 extension-unit parser that fails to validate descriptor length before accessing the GUID field. A local attacker with a malicious USB video camera can trigger a heap read beyond allocated bounds during camera stream setup, causing denial of service.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can cause a crash of the RDP client (denial of service) by connecting a malicious USB device.

Recommendation

Update FreeRDP to version 3.29.0 or later, which includes the fix for descriptor length validation.
