freerdp3: FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol
CVE-2026-27015 is fixed in 27 products on 1 platform, first by freerdp3-proxy 3.16.0+dfsg-2ubuntu0.3, released February 25, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.23.0, a missing bounds check in `smartcard_unpack_read_size_align()` (`libfreerdp/utils/smartcard_pack.c:1703`) allows a malicious RDP server to crash the FreeRDP client via a reachable `WINPR_ASSERT` → `abort()`. The crash occurs in upstream builds where `WITH_VERBOSE_WINPR_ASSERT=ON` (default in FreeRDP 3.22.0 / current WinPR CMake defaults). Smartcard redirection must be explicitly enabled by the user (e.g., `xfreerdp /smartcard`; `/smartcard-logon` implies `/smartcard`). Version 3.23.0 fixes the issue.
