FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.23.0, xf_rail_server_local_move_size dereferences a freed xfAppWindow pointer because xf_rail_get_window returns an unprotected pointer from the railWindows hash table, and the main thread can concurrently delete the window (via a window delete order) while the RAIL channel thread is still using the pointer. Version 3.23.0 fixes the issue.
CVE-2026-25954
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 60% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
