Description Xavi Hernandez 2017-09-12 12:44:02 UTC
Description of problem:

glusterd_get_args_from_dict() creates a new dict from unserialization of the data coming from getspec. From there it extracts 'brick_name' and stores the pointer to argument brick_name (a char **). Just before returning, dict is released, deallocating all related data, including the string pointer by brick_name.

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