Summary

The vulnerability with the embedded chrome browser in Remote Desktop Manager Windows is fixed in the latest version (2023.2.33 and higher).

The embedded chromium browser component used by Remote Desktop Manager Windows is currently affected by a critical security vulnerability. The vulnerability (CVE-2023-4863) is in the libwebp library used by the chromium engine. This component is managed by a third-party and can't be patched on our end.

We advise not to use the embedded chrome browser in the web site entries and switch to another browser such as Microsoft Edge in the meantime. You can switch browser by editing the entry and changing the Web browser property to Microsoft Edge. By default, RDM Windows uses Microsoft Edge if the default configuration hasn't been modified.

The fix is now available to all platforms.

Other platforms

A component named SkiaSharp used for rendering images in our products is also affected by the same vulnerability. This component will be updated for other platforms.
