CVE-2026-31897

FreeRDP has an out-of-bounds read in `freerdp_bitmap_decompress_planar`

Published Mar 13, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 0 Low EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.24.0, there is an out-of-bounds read in freerdp_bitmap_decompress_planar when SrcSize is 0. The function dereferences *srcp (which points to pSrcData) without first verifying that SrcSize >= 1. When SrcSize is 0 and pSrcData is non-NULL, this reads one byte past the end of the source buffer. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.24.0.
