Where proxy use is necessary, restrict listening access to trusted client networks and require client authentication.\n--- CME Mitigation Guidance (2026-11-06) ---\nDisclaimer: The following mitigation solutions are provided as a courtesy, pending the application of an official patch. This content was generated utilizing AI tools in conjunction with data from https://cmetaxonomy.org. Customers are advised to independently evaluate and test these temporary mitigations within their own infrastructure.\nThe highest-value action is to enforce minimum bounds validation on client-declared numCellCaches before allocating the bitmap cache array in freerdp-proxy: upgrade to FreeRDP 3.32.2 (or the fixed Freerdp builds), which reject Bitmap Cache v2 capability sets declaring numCellCaches values below five, closing all 2 injection vectors (Crafted Confirm Active PDU declaring numCellCaches below five, Bitmap Cache v2 capability with persistent keys enabled). Until patched, this is a concern on Deployments running the freerdp-proxy component accessible to network clients, so Disable freerdp-proxy if not required, or restrict network access to trusted client networks and enforce client authentication. As a compensating measure, Enable Address Space Layout Randomization to randomize proxy memory layout and hinder reliable heap exploitation, Enforce full RELRO and PIE on the freerdp-proxy binary to prevent Global Offset Table overwrites, and Enable Control Flow Integrity to restrict indirect branch targets to valid functions if heap metadata is corrupted. These controls limit blast radius and contain exploitation, but they do not fix the underlying out-of-bounds heap write defect \u2014 apply the upstream patch to fully remediate.\nHighest-impact CME: CME-1311 Input Size and Quantity Bounds Enforcement (high)"}, "name": "CVE-2026-121952", "package_state": [{"cpe": "cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:10", "fix_state": "Affected", "package_name": "freerdp", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_els:6", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "freerdp", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_els:7", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "freerdp", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:8", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "freerdp", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:9", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "freerdp", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9"}], "public_date": "2026-11-04T15:33:18Z", "references": ["https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-121952\nhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-121952\nhttps://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-xc85-4mqc-xgcx\nhttps://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/freerdp-before-3.32.2-proxy-out-of-bounds-write-via-bitmap-cache-v2-capability"], "statement": "This vulnerability is rated Important rather than Critical.
