git log 3.27.1...3.27.0

# 2026-06-15 Version 3.27.0

A major feature / bugfix / cleanup release
What did change:
 * Password hash now uses a custom SSPI attribute on non windows systems
 * TLS seclevel now defaults to 2 and a minimum of TLS 1.2 is required.
   Client side the /tls:seclevel:<number> and /tls:enforce:<version> allow to override these.
   Server implementations can manually set these with rdpSettings::FreeRDP_TLSMinVersion and
   rdpSettings::FreeRDP_TlsSecLevel
   (See https://docs.openssl.org/3.0/man3/SSL_CTX_set_security_level/ for more details)
 * The RDP proxy got a fix which removed (unstable) structs from public headers. There are no
   known users of that (internal) API, but if you happen to be one please ping us.
 * Android client got some huge updates again (thank @svncibrahim)
 * Enhancements with Azure/Entra support: some (known but not officially documented) extensions
   have been added to make these connections more stable.
 * keyboard mapping
 * Allow RDPDR channel to pass additional arguments to the channel. Does not break existing behaviour
   but allows a channel supporting this to query the additional arguments for further use.
 * Fix some WinPR deprecation handling, add WITHOUT_WINPR_3x_DEPRECATED that allows building
   without any symbol deprecated during the stable 3 series
 * Some client side statistics logging API was added. By default prints a (trace) log at the
   end of a session, but it can be queried at any time for some connection details.

git log 3.24.0...3.23.0

# 2026-02-25 Version 3.23.0

A new release and again a lot of changes:
* We've received in depth analysis of FreeRDP client code and have addressed shortcomings uncovered by these.
CVE-2026-26965
CVE-2026-26955
CVE-2026-26271
CVE-2026-25997
CVE-2026-25959
CVE-2026-25955
CVE-2026-25954
CVE-2026-25953
CVE-2026-25952
CVE-2026-25942
CVE-2026-25941

Another weakness was reported, see https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-qcfc-ghxr-h927

* Configuration isolation was added. 3rd party client/server applications should check
  the new API freerdp_setApplicationDetails and winpr_setApplicationDetails which allows
  using a custom namespace for configuration files and runtime data per application
* For developers, we've marked most of the API with [[nodiscard]] now so compilers
  might start complaining about unchecked return values now. This is intentional and should
  give some incentive to clean up code. Functions where the return is optional have been
  omitted. For the time being these checks are automatically applied for FreeRDP builds, external
  projects can opt in by defining WINPR_DEFINE_ATTR_NODISCARD in their build system.
* For developers: Please start testing your applications against FreeRDP builds with
  `-DWITHOUT_FREERDP_3x_DEPRECATED=ON` to ensure you're not using some soon to be removed API.
* SDL client did get a huge update, multimonitor and high DPI modes are now much improved
* We got a contribution for smartcard channel adding support for new attributes, so more
  applications might work now.

git log 3.8.0...3.7.0

# 2024-08-08 Version 3.7.0

This release has accumulated quite a number of changes. Along bugfixes for 3.6.3 it also
contains a number of improvements for distributors:

* Support for FDK-AAC for sound and microphone redirection (activate with -DWITH_FDK_AAC=ON build option)
  This allows enabling the AAC compression that do not ship faad2 and/or faac

  also requires JSON support)
  This allows editing keyboard layouts for existing releases should the need arise

  also requires JSON support)
  Allows reading the mapping between IANA and windows timezones from a JSON file, allowing easier updates without recompile

git log 3.2.0...3.1.0

# 2023-12-22 Version 3.1.0

A new 3.1.0 minor release for the new 3.0.0 series.
This contains bugfixes, adds (better) support for libressl and mbedtls and
brings a bunch of improvements for the SDL client.

This comes with a price though, we now (optionally) require SDL_image if you
want to build the sdl-client

Since there are multiple new features, some new files (man pages) and new
optional dependencies we´ve directly incremented the minor version.

New CMake options:
* SDL_USE_COMPILED_RESOURCES (default ON) builds fonts and images into SDL
  client. Set to OFF to install these resources as files. (was already part of
  3.0.0, but worth mentioning here)
* WITH_SDL_IMAGE_DIALOGS (default OFF) Show some nice icons for SDL client
  connection dialogs. Requires SDL_image for build.
* WITH_BINARY_VERSIONING (default OFF) Similar as for libraries the binaries,
  manpages and resource locations created by FreeRDP project are postfixed
  with the API version. Recommended if packagers want to install the package
  alongside FreeRDP 2 without conflicts.
* RDTK_FORCE_STATIC_BUILD (default OFF) Build and link RDTK statically into
  shadow server. Recommended for packagers as this library is not really used
  outside of FreeRDP-shadow.
* UWAC_FORCE_STATIC_BUILD (default OFF) Build and link UWAC statically into
  wlfreerdp. Recommended for packagers as this library is not really used
  outside of wlfreerdp.

Noteworthy changes:
* Fix a nasty bug with relative mouse movement (#9677)
* LibreSSL support enhancements (#9691, #9670)
* mbedTLS support enhancements (#9662)
* Improve building on mac OS (#9641)
* New and improved manpages (#9690, #9650)
* Unify CMake common options, add (optional) binary versioning and allow
  building rdtk and uwac as static dependencies  (#9695)
* SDL client improvements (#9693, #9657, #9659, #9683, #9680, #9657, #9664,
  #9656)

# 2023-12-12 Version 3.0.0

Final 3.0.0 release just a little over two weeks after the last 3.0.0-rc0.
This contains bugfixes, drops some legacy code, implements a small feature
request and adds some improvements to the build system.

Most notably is the new PreventInSourceBuilds.cmake which does exactly what
the name implies, it aborts builds where source equals build directory.
If you can not use out of source tree builds for some reason, you can
circumvent this measure with the CMake setting -DALLOW_IN_SOURCE_BUILD=ON

Noteworthy changes:
* add support for AF_VSOCK #9561
* xfreerdp drop X11 GDI implementation #9492
* fixed connection freeze with childSession #9594
* fixed relative mouse input issues #9608
* fixed issues with drive redirection #9610
* simplified mac build #9601
* fixed TSMF to build again #9603
* fixed command line /gfx parsing bug #9598
* prevent in source tree build #9550
* fixed various issues with settings #9595, #9596
* add E2K cpu support in WinPR #9599
* fixed wfreerdp DPI settings when used as embedded window #9593

will happen from this point on, so every project using FreeRDP can check

We are pleased to announce the first beta release for the next stable 3.0
series of FreeRDP. It has been a huge endeavour to implement all the new
shiny bells and whistles as well as clean up the code base and we´re still
ironing out some smaller glitches.
This is the first API breaking change since the 2.0 series and there are
some adjustments to be made for existing applications.
See https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/FreeRDP3-migration-notes for
help (still incomplete)

Noteworthy changes:
* Support for AAD/AVD authentication
* Support for websocket transport
* Support smartcard authentication (TLS and NLA)
* Full smartcard emulation support (login with certificate + key)
* Rewritten proxy, new module API
* New reference client based on SDL2 (work in progress)
* Rewritten logging, now parsing issues are all writing to the log so
  that issues with protocol incompatibilities can be easier analyzed
  by just turning on logging
* Full OpenSSL 3 support
* Internal implementations for RC4, MD4 and MD5 (required for non critical
  parts in RDP but not part of more recent SSL libraries)
* Updated RDP protocol support
* Improved xfreerdp remote app support
* Reworked internal state machine for both client and server implementations
* Server implementations can now make use of connect-time network autodetection
* Improved clipboard handling, now also support server-to-client file transfer
  (currently xfreerdp only)
* EnhancedRemoteApp support: Utilizing the more modern standard allows remote
  apps with less glitches and window shadows
* Added client- and server-side handling for RDSTLS
* Support for the graphics redirection channel
