Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-45700)
CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service and potentially execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds write in freerdp_bitmap_decompress_planar() and planar_decompress_plane_rle() in the planar bitmap decoder when decoding RLE planar data with a large destination stride and X destination coordinate that trigger the temp-buffer code path. A remote attacker can send specially crafted planar bitmap data to cause a denial of service and potentially execute arbitrary code.
No FreeRDP server or client is affected; the issue affects third-party implementations that use their own decoding system and utilize the FreeRDP planar decoder.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-22858)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the crypto_base64_decode() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the application.
3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23732)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Glyph_Alloc. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-25952)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service and potentially execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in xf_SetWindowMinMaxInfo when processing RAIL ServerMinMaxInfo orders concurrently with window delete orders. A remote attacker can send crafted RAIL orders to cause a denial of service and potentially execute arbitrary code.
The issue is triggered on the client side by a malicious server due to a race between the RAIL channel thread and the main thread.
