FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.22.0, a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in rdp_write_logon_info_v2() allows a malicious RDP server to crash FreeRDP proxy by sending a specially crafted LogonInfoV2 PDU with cbDomain=0 or cbUserName=0. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.22.0.

Weakness

The product dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid but is NULL.
