Summary0009538: Upgrade xrdp to 0.10.1-3.1+deb13u1 (CVE-2025-68670)
Description

Hello,

This may be related to the open bug (https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=8958). The Kali xrdp package has been stuck at version 0.9.24-5 since the end of 2024.

The issue is that this version contains a critical RCE vulnerability addressed by CVE-2025-68670 (CVSS v3 score: 9.8). The Debian Security team fixed it in version 0.10.1-3.1+deb13u1 as you can see here: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2025-68670

Could you please look into updating this package?

Hello,

I looked at this package just last week. The issue is that xrdp in Debian unstable (version 0.10.1-4.1) is affected by the issues mentioned in https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=8958, to the best of my knowledge.

I tested the pair of packages xrdb and xorgxrdp that are currently in Debian experimental, however these packages are also broken, I pinged the Maintainer about it: https://bugs.debian.org/1127009

I noticed that the CVE was fixed in bookworm, I'll check to see if the patches apply neatly to 0.9.24 as well.

I have uploaded xrdp 0.9.27-0kali1 which should hit Kali rolling in a few hours. It's the latest point release from the upstream branch 0.9, it contains the patches for CVE-2025-68670.

Thanks for reporting this issue!
