CVE-2026-57158
Last modified
CVE-2026-57158 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.1/10 on the CVSS scale. FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. From 3.21.0 before 3.28.0, FreeRDP clients using the GFX pipeline contain an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-23530 in planar_decompress_plane_rle_only in libfreerdp/codec/planar.c, allowing a malicious RDP server to send a truncated RDPGFX_CMDID_WIRETOSURFACE_1 planar payload that reads one byte past the input buffer. EPSS estimates a 0.69% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
