VRDP segfault when connecting using MS RemoteDesktop from an M2 Mac => fixed in SVN/next 7.0.x maintenance

Reported by: noszti Owned by:
Component: RDP Version: VirtualBox-7.0.10
Keywords: VRDP crash Cc: noszti
Guest type: Windows Host type: Linux

Description (last modified by noszti)

I'm running VirtualBox on a Oracle Linux 9 host with a Windows 11 guest OS with VRDP configured (on the RDP port (port 3389) of the host OS). When I connect to that port using a Microsoft Remote desktop client running on an M2 Mac, the Win11 VirtualBox crashes (in a consistently reproducible manner)).

The detailed setup is as follows:

  • VirtualBox: 7.0.10r158379 running on Oracle Linux 9 / 5.15.0-103.114.4.el9uek.x86_64
  • Guest OS is a Windows 11 Pro install (Version 22H2 (OS Build 22621.2134))
  • RDP client is Microsoft's Remote Dekstop APP (Version 10.9.0 (2140)) from an M2 macbook (MacOS X system (Ventura / 13.5.1 (22G90))

Other notes:

  • I start the VM in headless mode, but the issue can be reproduced in non-headless mode too.
  • Issue happens even when selecting the (obviously normally not recommended) null method for authentication
  • There are no issues connecting to the guest (Win11) OS' RDP service using the same MS Remote Desktop client
  • There are no issues when connecting to VRDP using MS Remote Desktop apps from other platforms (like Windows, or even from an Intel Mac (with the *same* Mac OS X version and same MS RDP client version as the M2 Mac))

Here are the relevant parts (showing the connection attempt) in the virtualbox log (i.e. the VBox.log file under the VM's Logs directory) when the crash happens (full log attached):

Searching the existing VirtualBox bugs, #17132 seems to be somewhat similar to this issue (albeit very old, from 2017)

Hi noszti,

Having VBox.log and core dump would be quite helpful.

comment:4 by galitsyn, 13 months ago

Hi noszti,

For privacy matters, you could join our IRC channel #vbox on OFTC (see https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/IRC) and send me a message there. Or, if easier, you can post a backtrace here.
