A bit more context helps:

                char *host, *port;

                    host = disk->src;

                    disk->hosts->name = host;

So there is definitely a use-after-free bug fixed by your patch.
However, your patch causes a double-free bug on error (if the
strdup(port) fails, then disk->hosts->port and disk->src are the same
pointer, but we attempt to free both of them).  I'm squashing this in
before pushing, to make the transfer semantics more obvious:
