What is CVE-2024-32660?

FreeRDP, a widely-used implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol, has a significant vulnerability that allows an attacker to crash the FreeRDP client. This can occur when a malicious server sends an invalid allocation size request that exceeds the expected limits. The problematic versions of FreeRDP are those released prior to 3.5.1, which has since addressed this issue through a patch. Users relying on FreeRDP should upgrade to version 3.5.1 or later to mitigate this security risk, as there are currently no known workarounds available.

Affected Version(s)

FreeRDP < 3.5.1
