Description of problem: lldpad-0.9.41/nltest.c:785,791,874 - Function get_bcn returns without freeing variable nhl. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.41-4 Additional info: These defects were probably introduced by Red Hat patches.
Created attachment 517208 [details] get_bcn() resource leak patch A possible patch fixing the described defect.
Patch applied in CVS, lldpad-0.9.43-3.el6.
I hope this bug was about Red Hat patches and mentioned error was successfully removed already in lldpad-0.9.43-3.el6 and is not present even in lldpad-0.9.43-10.el6: http://releng-test1.englab.brq.redhat.com/covscan/task/209/ So it looks it could be switched to VERIFIED now. --- As you can see from new log, there are lot of similar resource leaks in original source in nltest.c. If this should be really repaired, we could rather clone this bug for RHEL 6.3 or maybe consult it with upstream but it is not going to be about this #720730. Moreover it looks that this source is not for regular use (maybe for testing reasons?..) so switching to verified should be good enough.
