Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0522
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0522)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'freerdp' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0522 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'freerdp' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0522 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
All FreeRDP clients prior to version 2.4.1 using gateway connections
('/gt:rpc') fail to validate input data. A malicious gateway might allow
client memory to be written out of bounds. This issue has been resolved in
version 2.4.1. If you are unable to update then use `/gt:http` rather than
/gt:rdp connections if possible or use a direct connection without a
gateway. (CVE-2021-41159)

In affected versions a malicious server might trigger out of bound writes
in a connected client. Connections using GDI or SurfaceCommands to send
graphics updates to the client might send `0` width/height or out of bound
rectangles to trigger out of bound writes. With `0` width or height the
memory allocation will be `0` but the missing bounds checks allow writing
to the pointer at this (not allocated) region. This issue has been patched
in FreeRDP 2.4.1. (CVE-2021-41160)

Affected Software/OS:
'freerdp' package(s) on Mageia 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
