FreeRDP 2.0.0 before 3.32.0 Memory Exhaustion via Static Channel Reassembly

Published Oct 16, 2026 · corrected/updated Oct 16, 2026 · Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux · evidence confidence high

FreeRDP from 2.0.0 before 3.32.0 contains an unbounded reassembly vulnerability in WTSProcessChannelData that fails to enforce cumulative fragment limits. Authenticated clients can start a static virtual channel message, withhold the LAST flag, and send endless fragments to exhaust server memory.

Grounded briefings

Catalog interpretations for three audiences. Each brief cites ingested metadata and the original advisories below. They are not independent research and they do not invent exploit steps.

Executive

CVE-2026-111377 is a high public vulnerability record for Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. This summary is a catalog interpretation of the ingested metadata and cites the original advisories below.

System administrator

Identify whether Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux is in your estate, then compare installed versions with the affected ranges. Affected packages or ranges on record: FreeRDP FreeRDP. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. Prefer the vendor or distribution advisory linked in Sources before changing production systems. This is a catalog interpretation, not a runbook.

Security analyst
