Memory leak with CSList::ThrowAll() in NTFS_Common.h #268

Description
I found a mistake of using (or implement) with CSList::ThrowAll(). With ThrowAll() you want to give the responsibility of memory freeing to the object that the list assigned for. But in your InsertEntry() function, it just assigns only the pointer of ENTRY_TYPE not the pointer of NTSLIST_ENTRY and those pointers will never be freed.
PowerSploit/Exfiltration/NTFSParser/NTFSParserDLL/NTFS_Common.h
Lines 159 to 177 in 262a260
BOOL InsertEntry(ENTRY_TYPE *entry) | |
{ | |
NTSLIST_ENTRY<ENTRY_TYPE> *le = new NTSLIST_ENTRY<ENTRY_TYPE>; | |
if (!le) | |
return FALSE; | |
le->Entry = entry; | |
le->Next = NULL; | |
if (ListTail == NULL) | |
ListHead = le; // Empty list | |
else | |
ListTail->Next = le; | |
ListTail = le; | |
EntryCount++; | |
return TRUE; | |
} |
So in the ThrowAll(), you must free the NTSLIST_ENTRY before throwing all to NULL.
__inline void ThrowAll()
{
// My fix
while (ListHead)
{
ListCurrent = ListHead->Next;
ListHead->Entry = NULL;
delete ListHead;
ListHead = ListCurrent;
}
// End my fix
ListHead = ListTail = NULL;
ListCurrent = NULL;
EntryCount = 0;
}
