Subject: [PATCH 1/1] libctf: Fix double free in ctf_link_add_cu_mapping.
Date: Wed,  7 Dec 2022 15:11:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221207141137.1527113-1-felix.willgerodt@intel.com> (raw)

This fixes a potential double free which can occur if we jump to
oom_noerrno after the first free.

I am not very familiar with libctf, so any comments are welcome.
I am wondering if the right solution wouldn't be to free both t and f before
the "return 0".  But I didn't fully understand the code and saw that other
users of ctf_dynhash_insert() also don't free the key manually.

libctf/ChangeLog:
* ctf-link.c (ctf_link_add_cu_mapping): Adjust freeing logic.
