CVE-2026-63633
freerdp: FreeRDP: Arbitrary code execution via heap buffer overflow in Opus audio decode
Severity by source
Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by NVD. Rated lower by Red Hat (high), AlmaLinux (high), Amazon (high), Oracle (high), Rocky Linux (high), Ubuntu (medium).
Description
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.28.0, freerdp_dsp_decode_opus in libfreerdp/codec/dsp.c calls Stream_EnsureRemainingCapacity on context->common.buffer even though opus_decode writes decoded PCM into the caller-supplied out stream. A malicious RDP server that negotiates WAVE_FORMAT_OPUS with a client built with WITH_OPUS enabled and WITH_DSP_FFMPEG disabled can make libopus write a large decoded frame beyond the 4096-byte StreamPool_Take destination used by channels/rdpsnd/client/rdpsnd_main.c. This can corrupt the client heap, crash the client, and may permit code execution. This issue is fixed in version 3.28.0.
