CVE-2018-20182

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions rdesktop versions up to and including v1.8.3

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the seamless process line() function of the rdesktop RDP client. This can lead to memory corruption and potentially allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For rdesktop versions up to and including v1.8.3, consider disabling the seamless process line() function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the RDP client to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
