Subject: [PATCH] journald: free cmdline buffers owned by iovec
eb47ff
eb47ff
Resolves: #1666646
eb47ff
eb47ff
[msekleta: this is a followup for the fix of CVE-2018-16864. While
eb47ff
backporting upstream changes I've accidentally dropped the automatic
eb47ff
cleanup of the cmdline buffers. Technically speaking similar issue is in
eb47ff
coredump.c too, but after we dispatch iovec buffer in coredump.c we
eb47ff
immediately exit so allocated memory is reclaimed by the kernel.]
