Description of problem:

xf86-input-wacom-0.10.5/tools/xsetwacom.c:1448: var_assign: Assigning: "data" =  storage returned from "calloc(sizeof (long) /*8*/, 256UL)".
xf86-input-wacom-0.10.5/tools/xsetwacom.c:1483: leaked_storage: Variable "data" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.10.5-9

Additional info:

This defect was probably introduced by Red Hat patch.
Comment 2 Peter Hutterer 2011-06-30 23:18:47 UTC 
Simple fix → devel ack

Actual impact of this leak is negligible as xsetwacom exits after this function call anyway.
Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-06-30 23:19:58 UTC
