Investigate memory leaks in the C code #21
Comments
The last commit fixes a huge memory leak where nassl was leaking an OpenSSL BIO on almost every connection. In a simple script that runs 3 scan commands 20 times (https://gist.github.com/nabla-c0d3/fc633194f7a8509a7e68c931f1fbc471), memory usage at the end of the script went from 126856 kb to 50404 kb. This blog post helped me a lot, especially the section about umdh : https://benbernardblog.com/tracking-down-a-freaky-python-memory-leak/#usingumdhtosearchforcbasedmemoryleaks |
The fixes have been released as part of nassl 1.0.2. |
