FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, in yuv_ensure_buffer() in libfreerdp/codec/h264.c, h264->width and h264->height are updated before the reallocation loop. If any winpr_aligned_recalloc() call fails, the function returns FALSE but width/height are already inflated. This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2.

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2026:0561 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2026-33986:
    FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, in     yuv_ensure_buffer() in libfreerdp/codec/h264.c, h264->width and h264->height are updated before the     reallocation loop. If any winpr_aligned_recalloc() call fails, the function returns FALSE but width/height     are already inflated. This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2.

    CVE-2026-33984:
    FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, in     resize_vbar_entry() in libfreerdp/codec/clear.c, vBarEntry->size is updated to vBarEntry->count before the     winpr_aligned_recalloc() call. If realloc fails, size is inflated while pixels still points to the old,     smaller buffer. On a subsequent call where count <= size (the inflated value), realloc is skipped. The     caller then writes count * bpp bytes of attacker-controlled pixel data into the undersized buffer, causing     a heap buffer overflow. This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES16 / SLES_SAP16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:22194-1 advisory.

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

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, there is a heap-
    buffer-overflow READ vulnerability at 24 bytes before the allocation, in winpr_aligned_offset_recalloc().
    This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2. (CVE-2026-33982)

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, an unvalidated
    auth_length field read from the network triggers a WINPR_ASSERT() failure in
    rts_read_auth_verifier_no_checks(), causing any FreeRDP client connecting through a malicious RDP Gateway
    to crash with SIGABRT. This is a pre-authentication denial of service affecting all FreeRDP clients using
    RPC-over-HTTP gateway transport. The assertion is active in default release builds
    (WITH_VERBOSE_WINPR_ASSERT=ON). This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2. (CVE-2026-33952)

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, a malicious RDP
    server can crash the FreeRDP client by sending audio data in IMA ADPCM format with an invalid initial step
    index value (>= 89). The unvalidated step index is read directly from the network and used to index into a
    89-entry lookup table, triggering a WINPR_ASSERT() failure and process abort via SIGABRT. This affects any
    FreeRDP client that has audio redirection (RDPSND) enabled, which is the default configuration. This issue
    has been patched in version 3.24.2. (CVE-2026-33977)

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2,
    progressive_decompress_tile_upgrade() detects a mismatch via progressive_rfx_quant_cmp_equal() but only
    emits WLog_WARN, execution continues. The wrapped value (247) is used as a shift exponent, causing
    undefined behavior and an approximately 80 billion iteration loop (CPU DoS). This issue has been patched
    in version 3.24.2. (CVE-2026-33983)

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

  - FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, in     yuv_ensure_buffer() in libfreerdp/codec/h264.c, h264->width and h264->height are updated before the     reallocation loop. If any winpr_aligned_recalloc() call fails, the function returns FALSE but width/height     are already inflated. This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2. (CVE-2026-33986)

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