Should't we audit all sscanf with %a for the missing free() ?
sscanf(3):
? An optional 'a' character. This is used with string conver?
sions, and relieves the caller of the need to allocate a corre?
sponding buffer to hold the input: instead, scanf() allocates a
buffer of sufficient size, and assigns the address of this buf?
fer to the corresponding pointer argument, which should be a
pointer to a char * variable (this variable does not need to be
initialized before the call). The caller should subsequently
free(3) this buffer when it is no longer required. This is a
GNU extension; C99 employs the 'a' character as a conversion
specifier (and it can also be used as such in the GNU implemen?
tation).
Thanks,
Mathieu
