From: Paulo Alcantara <pc@xxxxxx> commit b854b4ee66437e6e1622fda90529c814978cb4ca upstream. The crash occurred because we were calling memzero_explicit() on an already freed sess_data::iov[1] (ntlmsspblob) in sess_free_buffer(). Fix this by not calling memzero_explicit() on sess_data::iov[1] as it's already by handled by callers.
