Subject: bpftool: Fix memory leak in dump_xx_nlmsg on realloc failure
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=99fe8af069a9fa5b09140518b1364e35713a642e;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git

bpftool: Fix memory leak in dump_xx_nlmsg on realloc failure

In function dump_xx_nlmsg(), when realloc() fails to allocate memory,
the original pointer to the buffer is overwritten with NULL. This causes
a memory leak because the previously allocated buffer becomes unreachable
without being freed.
