Background

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the remote desktop protocol.

Description

FreeRDP does not properly validate user-supplied input, which could lead to an integer overflow in the xf_Pointer_New() function.

Impact

A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause Denial of Service.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All FreeRDP users should upgrade to the latest version:

 # emerge --sync
 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
 ">=net-misc/freerdp-1.1.0_beta1_p20130710-r1"
