From: Paul Moore Date: Wed, 1 Aug 2007 15:12:59 +0000 (-0400) Subject: Net/Security: fix memory leaks from security_secid_to_secctx() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e6e0871cce2ae04f5790543ad2f4ec36b23260ba;p=linux-beck.git Net/Security: fix memory leaks from security_secid_to_secctx() The security_secid_to_secctx() function returns memory that must be freed by a call to security_release_secctx() which was not always happening. This patch fixes two of these problems (all that I could find in the kernel source at present).
