FreeRDP Heap-based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

CVSS: 7.3, high high CVSS v3.1
EPSS, next 30 days: 0.1% higher than 1.9% of scored CVEs
Exploitation: No public evidence
Published: 16 Oct 2026yesterday

Description

FreeRDP before 3.32.0 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in persistent_cache_read_entry_v3 that allows local attackers to corrupt memory by supplying a crafted v3 persistent cache file. Attackers can set large width and height values that wrap the size calculation in persist_cache_get_data, causing fread to overflow an undersized buffer and potentially execute code.
