CVE-2026-125394
FreeRDP before 3.33.0 contains a heap use-after-free vulnerability in updategdipatblt(), updategdipolygoncb() and updategdimem3blt() that retain stale brush cache pointers. A malicious RDP server can resend CACHEBRUSH to the same slot then send PATBLT, causing clients to read freed heap memory, disclosing data or crashing.
