An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-44422 exists.\n\nAffected product: Freerdp Freerdp. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44422/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44422/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-44422","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44422/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-44422","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-44422","GHSA-j9q5-7g8m-jc9v","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-44422"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FreeRDP client library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A malicious server can trigger a use-after-free or double-free in the FreeRDP client via RDPEAR NDR parsing, potentially leading to code execution or crashes.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"freerdp","vendor":"freerdp"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-825","name":"Expired Pointer Dereference"},{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"},{"id":"CWE-415","name":"Double Free"}],"description":"FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.26.0, FreeRDP's RDPEAR NDR parser accepts one non-null NDR pointer ref-id for multiple logical pointer fields without tracking the pointed object's expected NDR type or ownership. When the same ref-id is reused across two pointer fields, the parser assigns the same heap object to both output fields. The generic destructor later walks each field independently and destroys/frees both pointers. This causes a malicious-server-triggerable heap use-after-free / double-free in the FreeRDP client's RDPEAR authentication-redirection path. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.26.0.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"FreeRDP RDPEAR NDR ref-id aliasing causes client-side UAF/double-free and type confusion","id":"CVE-2026-44422","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"freerdp:freerdp","products":["freerdp:freerdp"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"ShellHub: Cross-tenant IDOR in `GET /api/sessions/:uid` discloses SSH session data","id":"CVE-2026-44423"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"FreeRDP RDPGFX CacheToSurface heap-buffer-overflow via clamped-rectangle validation bypass","id":"CVE-2026-44421"},"products":["FreeRDP"],"published":"2026-05-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-37594","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-37595","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-27"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"FreeRDP Windows Client before 3.29.0 Heap Buffer Overflow via Cliprdr","id":"CVE-2026-67305","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"FreeRDP before 3.29.0 TLS Certificate Identity Validation Bypass","id":"CVE-2026-66402","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"FreeRDP before 3.29.0 HTTP Proxy Request Injection via Redirection","id":"CVE-2026-67289","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"FreeRDP before 3.29.0 WebSocket Ping Buffer Over-disclosure","id":"CVE-2026-67292","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"FreeRDP before 3.29.0 Improper Certificate Hostname Validation","id":"CVE-2026-67293","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-27","vendors":["FreeRDP"]},"summary":"A malicious server can trigger a use-after-free or double-free in the FreeRDP client via RDPEAR NDR parsing, potentially leading to code execution or crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44422/"}
