xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions through 0.10.5 contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability during the RDP capability exchange phase. The issue occurs when memory is accessed before validating the remaining buffer length. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted Confirm Active PDU. Successful exploitation could lead to a denial of service (process crash) or potential disclosure of sensitive information from the process memory. This issue has been fixed in version 0.10.6.

The remote Fedora 43 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-9417ff0bc5 advisory.

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions through 0.10.5 have an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the
    pre-authentication RDP message parsing logic. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger this flaw by
    sending a specially crafted sequence of packets during the initial connection phase. This vulnerability
    results from insufficient validation of input buffer lengths before processing dynamic channel
    communication. Successful exploitation can lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition via a process crash
    or potential disclosure of sensitive information from the service's memory space. This issue has been
    fixed in version 0.10.6. (CVE-2026-33689)

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. In versions through 0.10.5, xrdp does not implement verification for
    the Message Authentication Code (MAC) signature of encrypted RDP packets when using the "Classic RDP
    Security" layer. While the sender correctly generates signatures, the receiving logic lacks the necessary
    implementation to validate the 8-byte integrity signature, causing it to be silently ignored. An
    unauthenticated attacker with man-in-the-middle (MITM) capabilities can exploit this missing check to
    modify encrypted traffic in transit without detection. It does not affect connections where the TLS
    security layer is enforced. This issue has been fixed in version 0.10.6. If users are unable to
    immediately upgrade, they should configure xrdp.ini to enforce TLS security (security_layer=tls) to ensure
    end-to-end integrity. (CVE-2026-32105)

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. In versions through 0.10.5, the session execution component did not
    properly handle an error during the privilege drop process. This improper privilege management could allow
    an authenticated local attacker to escalate privileges to root and execute arbitrary code on the system.
    An additional exploit would be needed to facilitate this. This issue has been fixed in version 0.10.6.
    (CVE-2026-32107)

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions through 0.10.5 contain a heap-based buffer overflow
    vulnerability in the NeutrinoRDP module. When proxying RDP sessions from xrdp to another server, the
    module fails to properly validate the size of reassembled fragmented virtual channel data against its
    allocated memory buffer. A malicious downstream RDP server (or an attacker capable of performing a Man-in-
    the-Middle attack) could exploit this flaw to cause memory corruption, potentially leading to a Denial of
    Service (DoS) or Remote Code Execution (RCE). The NeutrinoRDP module is not built by default. This
    vulnerability only affects environments where the module has been explicitly compiled and enabled. Users
    can verify if the module is built by checking for --enable-neutrinordp in the output of the xrdp -v
    command. This issue has been fixed in version 0.10.6. (CVE-2026-32623)

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions through 0.10.5 contain a heap-based buffer overflow
    vulnerability in its logon processing. In environments where domain_user_separator is configured in
    xrdp.ini, an unauthenticated remote attacker can send a crafted, excessively long username and domain name
    to overflow the internal buffer. This can corrupt adjacent memory regions, potentially leading to a Denial
    of Service (DoS) or unexpected behavior. The domain_name_separator directive is commented out by default,
    systems are not affected by this vulnerability unless it is intentionally configured. This issue has been
    fixed in version 0.10.6. (CVE-2026-32624)

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions through 0.10.5 contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability     during the RDP capability exchange phase. The issue occurs when memory is accessed before validating the     remaining buffer length. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger this vulnerability by sending a     specially crafted Confirm Active PDU. Successful exploitation could lead to a denial of service (process     crash) or potential disclosure of sensitive information from the process memory. This issue has been fixed     in version 0.10.6. (CVE-2026-33516)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
