CVE-2026-57156

FreeRDP FreeRDP, freerdp

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.28.0 on 32-bit builds, FreeRDP clients contain an integer overflow in update_read_delta_points in libfreerdp/core/orders.c when multiplying an attacker-controlled point count by sizeof(DELTA_POINT), allowing a malicious RDP peer to allocate an undersized heap buffer and then write beyond it during initialization. This issue is fixed in version 3.28.0.
