CVE-2026-22858
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.6)—
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.20.1, global-buffer-overflow was observed in FreeRDP's Base64 decoding path. The root cause appears to be implementation-defined char signedness: on Arm/AArch64 builds, plain char is treated as unsigned, so the guard c <= 0 can be optimized into a simple c != 0 check. As a result, non-ASCII bytes (e.g., 0x80-0xFF) may bypass the intended range restriction and be used as an index into a global lookup table, causing out-of-bounds access. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.20.1.

Como resultado, los bytes no ASCII (por ejemplo, 0x80-0xFF) pueden eludir la restricción de rango prevista y usarse como un índice en una tabla de búsqueda global, causando acceso fuera de límites.
