Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-33952 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 6.5 (Medium) - EPSS: 0.0028 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Mar 30, 2026 ## Description FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, an unvalidated auth_length field read from the network triggers a WINPR_ASSERT() failure in rts_read_auth_verifier_no_checks(), causing any FreeRDP client connecting through a malicious RDP Gateway to crash with SIGABRT. This is a pre-authentication denial of service affecting all FreeRDP clients using RPC-over-HTTP gateway transport. The assertion is active in default release builds (WITH_VERBOSE_WINPR_ASSERT=ON). This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | freerdp amzn 2023 | 2:3.6.3-1.amzn2023.0.10 |
