CVE-2026-67289: FreeRDP before 3.29.0 HTTP Proxy Request Injection via Redirection

• Severity: high (CVSS 7.5 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.4% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: yes
• Published: 2026-08-01 · updated 2026-10-02
• Weakness: CWE-113

Description

FreeRDP before 3.29.0 (affected versions <= 3.28.0) does not validate CRLF and control characters in the server-controlled RDP redirection TargetNetAddress field. This value is copied into the client's ServerHostname and, when the client connects through an HTTP proxy, is written directly into the proxy CONNECT request line and Host header by http_proxy_connect() without filtering. A malicious or compromised RDP server can send a crafted redirection PDU containing embedded control characters to inject arbitrary headers/requests into the HTTP proxy CONNECT request.

Affected products

• FreeRDP: before 3.29.0 — fixed in 3.29.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: FreeRDP 3.29.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
