| Summary | 0008812: memory leak in extract_address in tcp communicator | ||||
| Description | res = GNUNET_strdup (token); addr = GNUNET_strdup (res); and then later on addr gets returned, while res is leaked. res is used nowhere else in the entire procedure. Strange piece of code. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Build gnunet with --enable-sanitizer 2. Start the node with gnunet-arm -s 3. Stop the node after a bit with gnunet-arm -e 4. Observe reported memory leak wherever you've configured communicator-tcp to log to | ||||
