Description

In FreeRDP before version 2.1.2, there is a use-after-free in gdi_SelectObject. All FreeRDP clients using compatibility mode with /relax-order-checks are affected. This is fixed in version 2.1.2.

Statement

Although the vulnerable code could have been in versions of freerdp shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and 8, the build configuration disables the shadow-server functionality and thus the vulnerable code is not shipped. Therefore, versions of freerdp shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and 8 are not affected. The version of freerdp shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 does not contain the vulnerable code in the first place.
