FreeRDP versions before 3.31.0 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the RDPGFX server's ResetGraphics PDU serializer that fails to initialize padding bytes in the fixed 340-byte wire format. Attackers can receive uninitialized heap memory including live pointers and GLib function addresses transmitted in the PDU, defeating heap ASLR and disclosing the GLib module base address.
