How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 libfreerdp2 to version 2.0.0~rc4-3.10.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libfreerdp2 package and not the libfreerdp2 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

libfreerdp/codec/region.c in FreeRDP through 1.1.x and 2.x through 2.0.0-rc4 has memory leaks because a supplied realloc pointer (i.e., the first argument to realloc) is also used for a realloc return value.
