Out-of-bounds Read

CVE-2024-32460

Severity High
Score 9.8/10

Summary

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. FreeRDP based clients using `/bpp:32` legacy `GDI` drawing a path with a version of FreeRDP prior to 2.11.6, and 3.x prior to 3.5.0 are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds Read. As a workaround, use modern drawing paths (e.g. `/rfx` or `/gfx` options). The workaround requires server-side support.
