| |
Hello!
I am still playing with improving memleak detector thing from smatch project.
Seems there is a memleak in fs/binfmt_elf.c::load_elf_binary() in current 2.5 If setup_arg_pages() fails (line 638 in my sources) we do return but not freeing possibly allocated elf_interpreter (line 520) and allocated elf_phdata (line 500) areas.
Is this looking real? At least it looks real for me (I am trying to get number of false positives way down).
