Users should update FreeRDP to version 3.32.2 or later as provided by their distribution's security updates. For Ubuntu users, the fixed package versions are 3.32.2+dfsg-0ubuntu0.24.04.1, 3.32.2+dfsg-0ubuntu0.26.10.1, and 3.32.2+dfsg-0ubuntu0.26.04.1. Applying these official patches fully mitigates the vulnerability. No additional workarounds or mitigations are indicated.

Description

FreeRDP versions from 3.27.0 before 3.32.2 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the rdpdr_dump_packet function. This flaw allows malicious RDP servers to crash clients by sending malformed RDPDR device-list announcements with a DeviceDataLength value exceeding the actual packet size. The issue triggers a fatal assertion failure when device redirection, TRACE logging, and WinPR assertions are enabled. The vulnerability has a low severity score and has been fixed in FreeRDP version 3.32.2.
