| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in FreeRDP. A malicious Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) server can exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted sequence of progressive display tile updates to a connecting client. Because decompression buffers are allocated without being initialized, processing these updates can trigger an internal assertion failure that terminates the client application or causes uninitialized heap memory to be rendered directly onto the screen. This allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or disclose sensitive information.
