CVE-2024-32041  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-125  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade freerdp/freerdp to version 2.11.6, 3.5.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds Read due to improper handling of certain input within the zgfx_decompress_segment function. An attacker can cause an out-of-bounds read, leading to potential information disclosure through crafted input. This is only exploitable if the /gfx option is enabled, which is the default setting.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by deactivating /gfx and using /bpp or /rfx options instead.
