CVE-2026-45700
Heap-buffer-overflow write in planar bitmap decoder
Overview
Description
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.26.0, FreeRDP's planar bitmap decoder has an out-of-bounds heap write when decoding RLE planar data. In libfreerdp/codec/planar.c, freerdp_bitmap_decompress_planar() validates the X destination coordinate nXDst against the caller-provided destination stride (nDstStep) even when it is writing into the internal temp buffer pTempData. An attacker can bypass the check with a large nDstStep and a large nXDst, causing planar_decompress_plane_rle() to write past the end of pTempData. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.26.0.

Action Type Old Value New Value Added Translation Title: FreeRDP, Description: FreeRDP es una implementación gratuita del Protocolo de Escritorio Remoto. Antes de la versión 3.26.0, el decodificador de mapas de bits planares de FreeRDP tiene una escritura fuera de límites en el heap al decodificar datos planares RLE. En libfreerdp/codec/planar.c, freerdp_bitmap_decompress_planar() valida la coordenada de destino X nXDst contra el paso de destino proporcionado por el llamador (nDstStep) incluso cuando está escribiendo en el búfer temporal interno pTempData. Un atacante puede omitir la verificación con un nDstStep grande y un nXDst grande, lo que hace que planar_decompress_plane_rle() escriba más allá del final de pTempData. Esta vulnerabilidad se corrigió en la versión 3.26.0. -
