DescriptionGitHub Advisory

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.22.0, the RDPSND async playback thread can process queued PDUs after the channel is closed and internal state is freed, leading to a use after free in rdpsnd_treat_wave. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.22.0.
