NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream freerdp-proxy package and not the freerdp-proxy package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to version 3.24.2, in persistent_cache_read_entry_v3() in libfreerdp/cache/persistent.c, persistent->bmpSize is updated before winpr_aligned_recalloc(). If realloc fails, bmpSize is inflated while bmpData points to the old buffer. This issue has been patched in version 3.24.2.
