CVE-2008-5904
The rdp_rdp_process_color_pointer_pdu function in rdp/rdp_rdp.c in xrdp 0.4.1 and earlier allows remote RDP servers to have an unknown impact via input data that sets crafted values for certain length variables, leading to a buffer overflow.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.35%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
