https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D229020 Bug ID: 229020 Summary: Potential memory leak in sbin/umount Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: thomas.barabosch@fkie.fraunhofer.de Created attachment 194258 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D194258&action= =3Dedit Possible patch There may be a potential memory leak in sbin/umount. In function umountfs t= here is a call to getaddrinfo. According to getaddrinfo.3: "All of the information returned by getaddrinfo() is dynamically allo- cated: the addrinfo structures themselves as well as the socket address structures and the canonical host name strings included in the addrinfo structures. Memory allocated for the dynamically allocated structures created by a successful call to getaddrinfo() is released by the freeaddrinfo() fun= c- tion. The ai pointer should be a addrinfo structure created by a call= to getaddrinfo()." However, the whole file umount.c does not make a single call to freeaddrinf= o(). It would be better to free the addrinfo with freeaddrinfo to prevent a potential memory leak. Can you confirm this problem? I've attached a patch as a possible solution. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
