[PATCH] ecryptfs: fix a memory leak bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In ecryptfs_init_messaging(), if the allocation for 'ecryptfs_msg_ctx_arr'
fails, the previously allocated 'ecryptfs_daemon_hash' is not deallocated,
leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue, free
'ecryptfs_daemon_hash' before returning the error.
