Subject: bpo-35720: Fixing a memory leak in pymain_parse_cmdline_impl() (GH-11528)
X-Git-Tag: v3.8.0a1~61
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=35ca1820e19f81f69073f294503cdcd708fe490f;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

bpo-35720: Fixing a memory leak in pymain_parse_cmdline_impl() (GH-11528)

When the loop in the pymain_read_conf function in this same file
calls pymain_init_cmdline_argv() a 2nd time, the pymain->command
buffer of wchar_t is overriden and the previously allocated memory
is never freed.
