CVE-2026-111381

HIGH 7 PoC AVAILABLE

Published 2026-10-16 · Last modified 2026-10-16

FreeRDP before 3.32.0 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in persistent_cache_read_entry_v2 that allows local attackers to corrupt heap memory via integer wraparound in bitmap size calculation. Attackers can craft a persistent cache v2 file with oversized width and height values that causes mismatched entry size accounting and fixed 16 KiB reads, leading to crashes or code execution when loaded.

EXPLOIT AVAILABLE

Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
