FreeRDP: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code

FreeRDP: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code An integer overflow in FreeRDP couuld result in execution of arbitrary code or Denial of Service. freerdp 2014-12-13 2014-12-13 511688 remote 1.1.0_beta1_p20130710-r1 1.1.0_beta1_p20130710-r1

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the remote desktop protocol.

FreeRDP does not properly validate user-supplied input, which could lead to an integer overflow in the xf_Pointer_New() function.

A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause Denial of Service.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All FreeRDP users should upgrade to the latest version:


      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
      ">=net-misc/freerdp-1.1.0_beta1_p20130710-r1"
