HIGHNVD 7.57.5
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 73% 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).

A fix is available — apply it.

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.23.0, the function Stream_EnsureCapacity can create an endless blocking loop. This may affect all client and server implementations using FreeRDP. For practical exploitation this will only work on 32bit systems where the available physical memory is >= SIZE_MAX. Version 3.23.0 contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.
