FreeRDP FastGlyph parsing buffer overflow fixed in 3.21.0
CVE-2026-23732 Published on January 19, 2026
FreeRDP has heap-buffer-overflow in Glyph_Alloc
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.21.0, FastGlyph parsing trusts `cbData`/remaining length and never validates against the minimum size implied by `cx/cy`. A malicious server can trigger a clientside global buffer overflow, causing a crash (DoS). Version 3.21.0 contains a patch for the issue.
Weakness Type
Heap-based Buffer Overflow
A heap overflow condition is a buffer overflow, where the buffer that can be overwritten is allocated in the heap portion of memory, generally meaning that the buffer was allocated using a routine such as malloc().
