CVE-2026-91958: FreeRDP 3.11.0 through 3.30.0 Heap Buffer Overflow via Monitor Index
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.6 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.2% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: yes
- Published: 2026-09-15 · updated 2026-09-24
- Weakness: CWE-125
Description
FreeRDP versions before 3.31.0 fail to validate MonitorIds array values when parsing RDP connection files, allowing unbounded array indexing in xf_detect_monitors. Attackers can craft a malicious RDP file with an out-of-range selectedmonitors value to trigger out-of-bounds heap read and write operations when opened in xfreerdp.
Affected products
- FreeRDP: from 3.11.0 before 3.31.0 — fixed in 3.31.0
How to fix
Upgrade to a fixed version: FreeRDP 3.31.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
