Weakness: CWE-775

Description

FreeRDP versions 3.13.0 before 3.32.0 contain a resource retention flaw in drive_process_irp_create, which registers an opened local file in the drive dictionary before applying the allocation size and does not remove it when that operation fails. A malicious RDP server connected to a client with drive redirection enabled can send IRP_MJ_CREATE with AllocationSize set to UINT64_MAX, forcing the seek to fail and leaking the file object and operating-system handle until drive teardown.

Affected products

FreeRDP: from 3.13.0 before 3.32.0 — fixed in 3.32.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: FreeRDP 3.32.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
