Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2012-07-17 15:40:39 UTC

The plugin leaks memory during modify operations because it mistakenly assumes that slapi_mods_add_smod() takes ownership of the Slapi_Mod structure which is passed to it, when it really only takes ownership of the structure's contents.  The bug was fixed in upstream version 0.42, and we can either rebase to pick it up or backport the fix, as it's not an intrusive set of changes.
