the objective is that only the updated region(s) are refreshed instead of the whole screen
it's not much a problem for normal FreeRDP usage but becomes a serious issue if the display is processed, forwarded and rendered remotely, as done by web gateways such as Guacamole, FreeRDP-WebConnect and Myrtille (I'm the author of the latter)
- fixed invalid, missing or additional arguments
- removed all type casts from arguments
- added missing (void*) typecasts for %p arguments
- use inttypes defines where appropriate
Global static variables do not work, if more than one instance
of an RDP client is running in the same process space.
Removed the varaibles where possible and replaced them with
thread local storage where necessary.
Certificates can now be accepted temporarily.
The callbacks for certificate validation have been
modified to extend the information presented to the user.
This patch contains:
* checks for malloc return value + treat callers;
* modified malloc() + ZeroMemory() to calloc();
* misc fixes of micro errors seen during the code audit:
** some invalid checks in gcc.c, also there were some possible
integer overflow. This is interesting because at the end the data are parsed
and freed directly, so it's a vulnerability in some kind of dead code (at least
useless);
** fixed usage of GetComputerNameExA with just one call, when 2 were used
in misc places. According to MSDN GetComputerNameA() is supposed to return
an error when called with NULL;
** there were a bug in the command line parsing of shadow;
** in freerdp_dynamic_channel_collection_add() the size of array was multiplied
by 4 instead of 2 on resize
1)
Added missing checks for CreateEvent which also required the
following related changes:
- changed freerdp_context_new API to BOOL
- changed freerdp_peer_context_new API to BOOL
- changed pRdpClientNew callback to BOOL
- changed pContextNew callback to BOOL
- changed psPeerAccepted callback to BOOL
- changed psPeerContextNew callback to BOOL
2)
Fixed lots of missing alloc and error checks in the
changed code's neighbourhood.
3)
Check freerdp_client_codecs_prepare result to avoid segfaults
caused by using non-initialized codecs.
4)
Fixed deadlocks in x11 caused by missing xf_unlock_x11() calls
in some error handlers
5)
Some fixes in thread pool:
- DEFAULT_POOL assignment did not match TP_POOL definition
- don't free the pool pointer if it points to the static DEFAULT_POOL
- added error handling and cleanup in InitializeThreadpool
