http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524233 Summary: dds2tar-2.5.2-1309.45: possible memory leak Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dcb314@hotmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I just had a look at factory package dds2tar-2.5.2-1309.45 For source code file dds2tar-2.5.2/dds_tape.c, around line 410 is the source code for the function set_compression_mode. I notice the following code arg = malloc(sizeof (ioctl_arg)); but no matching call to free. This looks like a memory leak to me. Suggest code rework. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Packagers, please do not add openSUSE-local patches to fix this kind of errors but forward the bugs upstream and close the bugs as RESOLVED UPSTREAM. Note that it is perfectly fine to have "resource leaks" at the end of a program as the kernel will clean up for you. Manually freeing them only increases binary size and runtime. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
