From 58d04f6523b0029281d65f841859fa42d0c744ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars Hjemli Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2006 10:16:41 +0100 Subject: cache_lock: do xstrdup/free on lockfile Since fmt() uses 8 alternating static buffers, and cache_lock might call cache_create_dirs() multiple times, which in turn might call fmt() twice, after four iterations lockfile would be overwritten by a cachedirectory path. In worst case, this could cause the cachedirectory to be unlinked and replaced by a cachefile. Fix: use xstrdup() on the result from fmt() before assigning to lockfile, and call free(lockfile) before exit.
