>Description:
There are missing free() calls for the variables drives and vname
prior returning variable buf to caller to signal success.
>How-To-Repeat:
Found by a look into the sources.
>Fix:
add missing free() calls - e.g. with a patch like this:
char *p = strstr(buf, "/rdk");
- if (p++ == NULL)
- return buf;
- strcpy(p, p + 1);
+ if (p++ != NULL)
+ strcpy(p, p + 1);
free(drives);
free(vname);
return buf;
