FreeRDP has a heap-use-after-free in update_pointer_new(SDL)

FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.22.0, sdl_Pointer_New frees data on failure, then pointer_free calls sdl_Pointer_Free and frees it again, triggering ASan UAF. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.22.0.
