Ok. Thanks.
Last week I talked to Bernhard Miklautz (one of the FreeRDP upsteam maintainers and the actual packager of FreeRDPv2 in Debian). 1. Looking at fixing FreeRDP v1.1 in jessie / stretch ----------------------------------------------------- He sketched up the following pathway for getting freerdp (v1.1) fixed in Debian jessie (and stretch):What is the impact/scope of the individual issues? The individual commit messages are quite scarce. Are these exploitable by the server or a connecting client or vice versa?
First of all, FreeRDP in jessie/stretch never built the FreeRDP Server code as it was to immature at that time.
So, let's assume that FreeRDP in jessie/stretch only acts as a client against a malign server.
* CVE-2018-8786: client affected, if a malign server sends over a malign bitmap
* CVE-2018-8789: unclear to me, issue in WinPR (which is the FreeRDP toolbox, sloppily spoken, immitating
Windows API)* CVE-2018-8787: client affected, if a malign server sends over a malign bitmap * CVE-2018-8788: client affected, if a malign server uses NScoded and sends over a malign bitmap
From my understanding the potential remote code executions that are mentioned in the CVE descriptions are triggered by a malign server and the code executions then happen on the client side.
I have Cc:ed Bernhard so that he can negate or confirm my above estimations (as I am not an expert for FreeRDP upstream code).
