A vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android, WebClient (Client signaling, API sync loop, config management modules) allows Privilege Abuse.
This vulnerability is associated with program files src/rendezvous_mediator.Rs, src/hbbs_http/sync.Rs and program routines API sync loop, api-server config handling.
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.8.
Use of Password Hash With Insufficient Computational Effort, Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Client login, peer authentication modules) allows Password Brute Forcing.
The authentication proof is SHA256(SHA256(password + salt) + challenge), where both the salt and the challenge are generated entirely by the server with no client-side nonce, and the hash uses no slow key-derivation function. A rogue or on-path API/relay server (see CVE-2026-30794 / CVE-2026-30797) can issue a chosen salt and challenge, capture the resulting proof, and recover the password offline. The capture-replay claim (CWE-294) is withdrawn: the challenge is regenerated per connection (challenge = Config::get_auto_password(6)), so a captured proof is not replayable against the legitimate server. The 1.4.7 OTP brute-force limiter and the existing LOGIN_FAILURES counter constrain only ONLINE attempts and do not address offline recovery.
This vulnerability is associated with program files src/client.rs and program routines handle_hash(), handle_login_from_ui() (login proof construction).
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.8.
Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity, Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Heartbeat sync loop, strategy processing modules) allows Protocol Manipulation.
This vulnerability is associated with program files src/hbbs_http/sync.Rs and program routines stop-service handler in heartbeat loop.
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.8.
Missing Authorization vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Flutter URI scheme handler, config import modules) allows Application API Message Manipulation via Man-in-the-Middle. This vulnerability is associated with program files flutter/lib/common.Dart and program routines importConfig() via URI handler.
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.5.
Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information, Insufficiently Protected Credentials vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Address book sync, Heartbeat sync loop modules) allows Sniffing Attacks.
The client places the preset address-book password verbatim into the heartbeat sync JSON body (src/hbbs_http/sync.rs). Over an intact HTTPS session it is not exposed in transit, but it is a reusable shared secret rather than a zero-knowledge proof, so it is recovered by any party that becomes the API endpoint - under the re-homed/rogue API server (CVE-2026-30797) - and the leaked credential then authorizes the server-side address book.
This vulnerability is associated with program files src/hbbs_http/sync.rs and program routines heartbeat sync body builder (emits preset-address-book-password).
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.8.
Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Heartbeat sync loop modules) allows Sniffing Attacks. This vulnerability is associated with program files src/hbbs_http/sync.Rs and program routines Heartbeat JSON payload construction (preset-address-book-password).
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.5.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android (Flutter URI scheme handler, FFI bridge modules) allows Privilege Escalation. This vulnerability is associated with program files flutter/lib/common.Dart, src/flutter_ffi.Rs and program routines URI handler for rustdesk://password/, bind.MainSetPermanentPassword().
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.5.
A vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android, WebClient (Strategy sync, HTTP API client, config options engine modules) allows Application API Message Manipulation via Man-in-the-Middle.
This vulnerability is associated with program files src/hbbs_http/sync.Rs, hbb_common/src/config.Rs and program routines Strategy merge loop in sync.Rs, Config::set_options().
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.8.
Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm vulnerability in rustdesk-client RustDesk Client rustdesk-client on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android, WebClient (Config import, URI scheme handler, CLI --config modules) allows Retrieve Embedded Sensitive Data. This vulnerability is associated with program files flutter/lib/common.Dart, hbb_common/src/config.Rs and program routines parseRustdeskUri(), importConfig().
This issue affects RustDesk Client: through 1.4.5.
