Description Paulo Andrade 2017-01-04 17:37:08 UTC 
Based on valgrind, there is a 40 byte leak:

==00:18:13:25.070 9577== 40 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 1,263 of 2,339
==00:18:13:25.070 9577==    at 0x4C29BFD: malloc (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)

==00:18:13:25.070 9577==    by 0x1115F4: main (polkitd.c:236)

My first guess is that it is missing a
g_variant_unref(subject_gvariant) call.

Yeah, at a first (unverified!) glance, this seems to be an unfixed variant of https://cgit.freedesktop.org/polkit/commit/src/polkitbackend/polkitbackendauthority.c?id=ec039f9d7ede5b839f5511e26d5cd6ae9107cb2e . 

Thanks for your report.
