Integer overflow in the license_read_scope_list function in libfreerdp/core/license.c in FreeRDP through 1.0.2 allows remote RDP servers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large ScopeCount value in a Scope List in a Server License Request packet.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A malicious RDP server can make affected FreeRDP clients crash during license negotiation. The business impact is mainly denial of service for users or services relying on FreeRDP, with the CVE record also noting unspecified other possible impact. Exposure is likely limited to systems or applications using FreeRDP through 1.0.2 that connect to an RDP server capable of sending the malformed license request. Treat this as a targeted reliability risk, not an emergency internet-wide exposure based on available evidence. Patch during normal vulnerability maintenance, faster where FreeRDP connects to external RDP servers. Mitigation focus: Inventory FreeRDP usage and identify versions through 1.0.2.; Apply FreeRDP updates from the operating system or vendor advisory channel.; Prioritize systems that connect to third-party or untrusted RDP servers..
