Thanks for background.

Security issues only triggerable by a malicious RDP server are
low impact, a malicious RDP server can mess with you in so many
ways that client-side execution doesn't make a big difference.

This is certainly not something that would warrant an upgrade to
freerdp2 in a stable release, but if patches for 1.1 materialise
they could be shipped via a point update.

Cheers,

I will then look into patch backporting for LTS and upload them to stretch, too, once I have got them worked out.
