2B memory leak while parsing crafted config

[geeknik]

I did this

build libcurl with clang and address sanitizer
echo "VyAwClcgQA==" | base64 -d | tee curlrc
ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1 ./curl -q -K curlrc file://dev/null

I saw the following

Warning: Failed to read curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL
