Closed: Fixed Opened by sgallagh.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

From Coverity:

Calling allocation function "sss_nss_make_request" on "repbuf". [show details]
  309    nret = sss_nss_make_request(SSS_NSS_GETGRGID, &rd,
  310                                &repbuf, &replen, errnop);
...
  326    if (((uint32_t *)repbuf)[0] != 1) {
  327        *errnop = EBADMSG;
Variable "repbuf" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
  328        return NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN;
  329    }

Present in _nss_sss_getgrgid_r(), _nss_sss_getgrnam_r() and _nss_sss_initgroups_dyn()

Also present in _nss_sss_getpwnam_r() and _nss_sss_getpwuid_r()
