Why the CVSS differs
| Metric | NVD | Red Hat |
|---|---|---|
| Attack vector AV | network N | network N |
| Attack complexity AC | low L | low L |
| Privileges required PR | none N | none N |
| User interaction UI | none N | required R |
| Scope S | unchanged U | unchanged U |
| Confidentiality C | high H | high H |
| Integrity I | high H | high H |
| Availability A | high H | high H |
Each source scores the same vulnerability from what it judges the attack to need. The rows marked are where they judge it differently.
Timeline
| 2026-08-19 | first spoke of it: FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.27.0, rpc_client_recv_fragment in libfreerdp/core/gateway/rpc_client.c ensures the response reassembly stream capacity using only the server-declared alloc_hint rather than the actual StubLength about to be written. A malicious TS Gateway can send a PTYPE_RESPONSE with a small alloc_hint and a much larger frag_length, causing Stream_Write to copy attacker-controlled stub data beyond the 4096-byte pdu->s buffer. This can crash the client and may permit code execution through heap corruption. This issue is fixed in version 3.27.0. | NVD |
