3.1Low

CVE-2026-91957

FreeRDP before 3.31.0 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the smartcard RDPDR device handler when worker thread creation fails after device registration. Attackers can trigger thread creation failure during channel setup to cause device pointer deallocation while devman retains a reference, leading to crash or code execution.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
