Description |
An extension to hooks capabilities which debuted in Kea 1.4.0
introduced a memory leak for operators who are using certain hooks
library facilities. In order to support multiple requests
simultaneously, Kea 1.4 added a callout handle store but unfortunately
the initial implementation of this store does not properly free memory
in every case. Hooks which make use of query4 or query6 parameters in
their callouts can leak memory, resulting in the eventual exhaustion
of available memory and subsequent failure of the server process.
Affects Kea DHCP 1.4.0.
