  - FreeRDP from 2.0.0-beta1 before 3.28.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in
    smartcard_LocateCardsByATRA_Call because the ATR pattern cbAtr byte count is not capped. Malicious RDP
    servers can send crafted ATR mask arrays to use query timing as an oracle, leaking heap memory bit-by-bit
    to defeat ASLR and aid RCE exploits. (CVE-2026-109677)
