DescriptionCVE.org

FreeRDP before 3.31.0 contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the general_ChromaV1ToYUV444 function during AVC444 chroma plane reconstruction. A malicious RDP server can craft a RFX_AVC444_BITMAP_STREAM with specific frame geometry to trigger an out-of-bounds memory read past the allocated luma plane.

AnalysisAI

Heap out-of-bounds read in FreeRDP before 3.31.0 allows a malicious RDP server to trigger adjacent heap memory disclosure and potential client instability by sending a crafted RFX_AVC444_BITMAP_STREAM during AVC444 chroma reconstruction. The root cause is a missing row-index bounds check in general_ChromaV1ToYUV444 (and its ARM NEON and x86 SSE4.1 counterparts), causing memcpy to read past the end of the allocated luma plane when the server specifies specific frame geometry. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The victim must actively connect to an attacker-controlled RDP server using a FreeRDP-based client (version prior to 3.31.0). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L) accurately reflects the limited but real impact: a network-reachable flaw requiring only passive user interaction, with low confidentiality and availability consequences and no integrity impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade FreeRDP to version 3.31.0 or later. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
