High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-67296

NVD analysis in progress

FreeRDP before 3.29.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability in the RDPEI server channel handler that fails to validate maximum PDU body length before stream allocation. A malicious RDP client can send a header-only RDPEI message with a large declared body length to force excessive memory allocation on the server.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can take the service offline.
Weakness
The application accepts input without checking it, opening the door to unintended behaviour.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
