CWE-401  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 freerdp-devel to version 2.0.0~rc4-10.4.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream freerdp-devel package and not the freerdp-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 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.
