Subject: PHP snmp extension leaks memory
From: rodrigocc@gmail.com ("Rodrigo Campos")

Hi!

I am writing to the list because there's a bug in the php snmp
extension that leaks memory. This bug has been reported by Federico
Cuello two months ago here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45405

As you can see, Federico uploaded a patch that fixes the problem but
added a double free also two months ago. I've updated Federico's patch
almost one month and a half ago and published it there too.

We are running php with that patch applied since then and it works
well for us. I don't know what we can do to have some opinion about
the patch and to close the bug (applying this patch or some other
way), but I thought that sending an email to the list perhaps could
catch more attention :-)

As I comment in the bug report, the patch seems simple and correct.

I don't know if it matters, but gentoo has applied to the svn tree:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231528

If we can help in some way, please let me know.


Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo
