CVE-2026-41521 Details
Description
xrdp is an open source RDP server. Versions 0.10.6 and prior contain an integer overflow vulnerability when processing screen update messages within the vnc-any connection mode. A malicious remote VNC server can send crafted image dimensions that cause an integer overflow during memory buffer size calculation, resulting in an undersized allocation. Subsequent processing of the incoming image data using the original oversized parameters leads to an out-of-bounds read. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this flaw to disclose sensitive information from the heap memory or cause a denial of service (DoS) via a process crash. This issue has been fixed in version 0.10.6.1.
An integer overflow vulnerability has been identified in xrdp, an open-source RDP server, in versions through 0.10.6. The vulnerability arises when the server processes screen update messages in vnc-any connection mode. A malicious remote VNC server can send crafted image dimensions that trigger an integer overflow during memory buffer size calculations, resulting in an undersized allocation. This flaw can be exploited to read data out of bounds, potentially disclosing sensitive information from heap memory or causing a denial-of-service by crashing the process.
To address this vulnerability, users should update to xrdp version 0.10.6.1. For environments where an update is not immediately possible, remove or comment out the '[vnc-any]' section from 'xrdp.ini' and ensure that any other custom sections allowing connections to arbitrary VNC hosts are disabled or removed.
