What is CVE-2026-32624?

CVE-2026-32624 is a medium-severity memory corruption vulnerability in neutrinolabs xrdp, published on 17 Apr 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

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.

Weakness: CWE-122
