FreeRDP before 3.31.0 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the smartcard RDPDR device handler when worker thread creation fails after device registration. Attackers can trigger thread creation failure during channel setup to cause device pointer deallocation while devman retains a reference, leading to crash or code execution.
AnalysisAI
Use-after-free in FreeRDP's smartcard RDPDR device handler (before 3.31.0) allows a malicious or compromised RDP server to free a registered device pointer while the device manager still holds a reference, producing a dangling pointer that can crash the client or potentially be leveraged for code execution in the victim's session. The flaw is only reachable when a client with smartcard redirection enabled connects to an attacker-controlled RDP endpoint and the attacker can force a worker-thread creation failure during channel setup — a narrow, non-deterministic window reflected in the low CVSS 4.0 score of 2.3 (AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P, availability-only impact). …
