Subject: [COMMITTED 2.28-2.33] nscd: Fix double free in netgroupcache [BZ #27462]
Date: Mon, 8 Mar 2021 16:59:47 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210308112947.460163-1-siddhesh@sourceware.org> (raw)
From: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
In commit 745664bd798ec8fd50438605948eea594179fba1 a use-after-free
was fixed, but this led to an occasional double-free. This patch
tracks the "live" allocation better.
Tested manually by a third party.
