What it is about

FreeRDP ist eine freie Implementierung des Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in FreeRDP ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen, Daten zu manipulieren und offenzulegen sowie möglicherweise beliebigen Code auszuführen.

Under what conditions?

The BSI does not name any particular preconditions. Exploitable remotely according to the BSI.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen
  • einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen
  • Daten zu manipulieren
  • offenzulegen sowie möglicherweise beliebigen Code auszuführen

Am I affected?

Affected according to the BSI:

  • Open Source FreeRDP <3.32.2

The installed version is usually shown under “Help → About” or in the device’s admin interface.

What helps?

Update to at least:

  • Open Source FreeRDP 3.32.2

Is the vulnerability already being exploited?

None of the CVEs is in the CISA catalogue of exploited vulnerabilities. That does not mean there are no attacks, only that none are documented.
