What is CVE-2019-17177?

The FreeRDP project has identified a memory leak in the codec region handling due to improper use of the realloc function. In versions up to 2.0.0-rc4, the memory pointer supplied to realloc is also used to store its return value, which can lead to lost references and memory not being freed correctly. This issue requires attention to avoid performance degradation over time due to increased memory consumption.
