FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. FreeRDP based clients prior to version 3.5.1 are vulnerable to out-of-bounds read. This occurs when `WCHAR` string is read with twice the size it has and converted to `UTF-8`, `base64` decoded. The string is only used to compare against the redirection server certificate. Version 3.5.1 contains a patch for the issue. No known workarounds are available. https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/commit/626d10a94a88565d957ddc30768ed08b320049a7 https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-vffh-j6hh-95f4 https://oss-fuzz.com/testcase-detail/4985227207311360
