| # Title : FreeRDP Integer Overflow in Stream_EnsureCapacity Leads to Infinite Loop |
| # Author : indoushka |
| # Tested on : windows 11 Fr(Pro) / browser : Mozilla firefox 147.0.4 (64 bits) |
| # Vendor : https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/ |
=============================================================================================================================================
[+] Summary : A vulnerability in FreeRDP prior to version 3.23.0 allows an attacker to trigger an endless blocking loop due to an integer overflow in the Stream_EnsureCapacity function.
The issue occurs when a requested buffer size approaches or exceeds half of SIZE_MAX on 32-bit systems. During capacity expansion, the internal buffer size is doubled repeatedly.
If the size crosses the maximum limit of a 32-bit unsigned integer, an integer overflow causes the value to wrap around to a smaller number (or zero).
As a result, the loop condition (current_capacity < requested_size) may never become false, leading to an infinite loop and denial of service (DoS).
Affected Component: Stream_EnsureCapacity
Root Cause: Integer overflow during buffer resizing (capacity *= 2)
Impact: Infinite loop โ CPU exhaustion / denial of service
Affected Systems: 32-bit architectures with large addressable memory (>= SIZE_MAX)
Fixed in: FreeRDP version 3.23.0
Workarounds: None available
[+] POC :
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
void simulate_vulnerability(uint32_t requested_size) {
uint32_t current_capacity = 1024;
printf("Attempting to ensure capacity for: %u\n", requested_size);
while (current_capacity < requested_size) {
uint32_t old_cap = current_capacity;
current_capacity *= 2;
if (current_capacity < old_cap) {
printf("Overflow occurred! New capacity wrapped to: %u\n", current_capacity);
}
}
printf("Capacity secured: %u\n", current_capacity);
}
int main() {
uint32_t malicious_size = 0x80000001;
simulate_vulnerability(malicious_size);
return 0;
}
