Withdrawn: this CVE is not a vulnerability
The assigning CNA withdrew CVE-2026-69159 on 21 August 2026, and it carries the Rejected state at CVE.org and NVD. It must not be treated as a live finding. Its pre-withdrawal severity, score and exploitability are withheld below; the record itself is kept because withdrawals are reversible and because the reject reason is the correction worth publishing.

Action Type Old Value New Value Changed Description FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.29.0, planar_decompress_plane_rle and planar_decompress_plane_rle_only in libfreerdp/codec/planar.c verify that a control byte exists but do not verify that the source buffer contains the zero to fifteen raw bytes declared by that control byte. A malicious RDP server can send a truncated planar bitmap or surface update whose final control byte claims additional raw bytes, causing the decoder to read beyond pSrcData while processing a color plane. This can crash the client and may disclose adjacent memory. This issue is fixed in version 3.29.0. Rejected reason: ** REJECT ** DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2026-67306.
