Hi

 

I am using krb5-1.4.2 and I get the following message from valgrind
application to check for possible memory leaks in my application.

 

My code looks like this:

 

krb5_keytab keytab = 0;

 

/* status = krb5_kt_resolve(context, keytab_name, &keytab); */

 

// These variables are properly initialized: context, my_creds, me,
starttime, srbServicePrincipalName, options. Only keytab variable is passed
to the api as writeen here.

 

status = krb5_get_init_creds_keytab(context, &my_creds, me, keytab,
starttime, srbServicePrincipalName, &options);

 

I looked into the code it seems that in some cases the tempstr may not be
freed.
