| Impact: | Moderate | What is this? |
FreeRDP versions before 3.31.0 contain a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in nego_send_negotiation_request() that fails to validate the LB_LOAD_BALANCE_INFO field length before writing to a fixed 512-byte buffer. A malicious RDP server or man-in-the-middle can send a Server Redirection PDU with an oversized LB_LOAD_BALANCE_INFO value to overflow the buffer with attacker-controlled content, causing denial of service or heap corruption before authentication completes.
