Out-of-Bounds Memory Read in xrdp RDP Server by Neutrino Labs
CVE-2026-55645
6.5MEDIUM
What is CVE-2026-55645?
xrdp, an open-source RDP server, has a vulnerability in the processing of Client Control PDUs. It lacks sufficient length validation, allowing a remote, unauthenticated attacker to exploit this flaw by sending specially crafted and truncated Client Control PDUs. This could lead to out-of-bounds memory reads, potentially causing the service to terminate (resulting in Denial of Service). However, as xrdp forks a new process for each connection, a single process crash is unlikely to affect the overall service availability. The vulnerability has been addressed in version 0.10.6.1.
Affected Version(s)
