[PATCH 03/15] libtracefs: prevent a memory leak in update_fields()

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

 



In update_fields() p isn't freed is store_str fails. Since p is to be
freed whatever the result of store_str() might be, move the call to
free() before checking field_name.

Fixes a RESSOURCE_LEAK error (CWE-772)
