CVE-2026-66402

FreeRDP before 3.29.0 (affected versions <= 3.28.0) contains multiple TLS certificate identity validation weaknesses in tls_verify_certificate(), tls_match_hostname(), and x509_utils_get_dns_names(). Because FreeRDP performs custom Common Name and DNS SAN string matching instead of using OpenSSL's length-aware identity validation APIs, it (1) truncates DNS SAN values at embedded NUL bytes (accepting e.g. 'victim.example\0.attacker.example' as 'victim.example'), (2) accepts a matching Common Name even when non-matching DNS SAN entries are present, and (3) accepts IP-literal targets via DNS/CN matching without comparing iPAddress SANs. Under a trusted or misissued certificate chain, an attacker positioned to present such a certificate can bypass server identity verification, weakening TLS server authentication.

• CVE-2026-68580: reject a FramesPerPacket of INT32_MAX or more in audin_process_open() before it is stored, so a malicious server cannot overflow the per-packet size arithmetic in the audio input backends
• CVE-2026-66402: return the real length of certificate ASN.1 strings and reject values that are not a host name or IP, so a certificate carrying an embedded NUL can no longer pass identity validation as a shorter, different name
• CVE-2026-67300: deep-clone WINDOW_STATE_ORDER and NOTIFY_ICON_STATE_ORDER before posting them to the async update queue, and free the clone in the message destructor; the shallow copies referenced parser-owned heap released as soon as the callback returned
• CVE-2026-67289: validate the server-supplied redirection fields - addresses must parse as IPv4/IPv6, FQDN and NetBIOS name must look like a host, username and domain must not contain line breaks - so CRLF in TargetNetAddress can no longer be injected into the HTTP proxy CONNECT request
