CWE-400 Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

The product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource, thereby enabling an actor to influence the amount of resources consumed, eventually leading to the exhaustion of available resources.

CWE-415 Double Free

The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.

CWE-772 Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime

The product does not release a resource after its effective lifetime has ended, i.e., after the resource is no longer needed.
