high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444102

Description

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 3.27.1, FreeRDP clients launched
with the non-default /cache:codec:rfx option pass desktop stride and height to RemoteFX decoding for Cache
Bitmap V3 data while allocating bitmap->data only for the smaller DstWidth and DstHeight in
gdi_Bitmap_Decompress, allowing a malicious RDP server to trigger a heap out-of-bounds write with
attacker-controlled offset and content. This issue is fixed in version 3.27.1. (CVE-2026-55827)

Solution

Update the freerdp library and its related packages to version 3.27.1-r0 or later.
