CVE-2026-72745

FreeRDP before 3.30.0 contains an out-of-bounds…

A flaw was found in FreeRDP. A malicious peer, either a server or client, can exploit an out-of-bounds vulnerability during CredSSP/NLA authentication. By supplying a large 'extra count' (EC) value in a Kerberos GSS Wrap token, an attacker can cause the decryption operation to access memory outside of its intended buffer. This can lead to information disclosure, memory corruption, or a denial of service. FreeRDP: FreeRDP: Information disclosure and memory corruption via malformed Kerberos GSS Wrap token CVE-2026-72745 has been rejected as a duplicate of CVE-2026-73242 (ref: https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-72745). The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
