A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in FreeRDP due to improper validation of variable sizes, potentially allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. The attack vector involves exploiting this size validation flaw. Specific affected and fixed versions are not provided in the article. Mitigation information and CVSS score are also not available. The impact on Icelandic organizations is not specified, but given FreeRDP's use in remote desktop environments, organizations utilizing this software could be affected.
Kim Dong Han discovered that FreeRDP did not correctly validate the size of certain variables, which could cause a buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
