"The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1790065872 advisory.

  - FreeRDP before 3.29.0 contains a null pointer dereference vulnerability in smartcard cache request
    decoders that accept NULL NDR pointers for LookupName in SCARD_IOCTL_READCACHEA and
    SCARD_IOCTL_WRITECACHEA operations. When smartcard emulation is enabled, attackers can send crafted
    smartcard cache requests with NULL lookup-name pointers to trigger strlen() on a null pointer, causing
    client process termination. (CVE-2026-67288)

  - FreeRDP before 3.29.0 (affected versions <= 3.28.0) contains a heap out-of-bounds read in
    update_process_glyph_fragments()/glyph_cache_fragment_put() in libfreerdp/cache/glyph.c. When handling a
    GLYPH_FRAGMENT_ADD update, the code reads a one-byte server-controlled declared fragment size but does not
    verify it fits within the remaining received buffer before allocating and copying that many bytes. A
    malicious RDP server can send a short fragment with an oversized declared size, causing the client to read
    beyond the allocated buffer, resulting in an out-of-bounds read and client crash. (CVE-2026-67291)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
