Package: glibc-doc Version: 2.3.2.ds1-8 Severity: minor The node "Dynamic String Input" contains this example:
> { > char *variable, *value; > > if (2 > scanf ("%a[a-zA-Z0-9] = %a[^\n]\n", > &variable, &value)) > { > invalid_input_error (); > return 0; > } > > ... > } If scanf returns 1, then it has allocated memory for one string and assigned it to variable. That string should be freed. Please change the example to: > { > char *variable = NULL, *value = NULL; > > if (2 > scanf ("%a[a-zA-Z0-9] = %a[^\n]\n", > &variable, &value)) > { > free (variable); > free (value); > invalid_input_error (); > return 0; > } > > ... > } -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux Astalo 2.4.21-kon.astalo.1 #1 la elokuun 23. 01:05:31 EEST 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
