When sepol_user_add_role() fails to allocate memory for role_cp but succeeds in reallocating user->roles memory, it frees this reallocated memory, thus leaving user->roles referencing a free memory block. When sepol_user_clone() calls sepol_user_free(new_user) because the allocation failure made sepol_user_add_role() fail, the following code is executed: for (i = 0; i < user->num_roles; i++) free(user->roles[i]); free(user->roles); As user->roles has been freed, this code frees pointers which may be invalid and then tries to free user->roles again. Fix this flaw by returning right after strdup() failed in sepol_user_add_role(). This issue has been found using clang's static analyzer. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Iooss <nicolas.iooss@m4x.org>

If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. To install libsepol on macOS (mainly for policy analysis): cd libsepol; make DESTDIR=/usr/local PREFIX=/usr/local install This requires GNU coreutils (brew install coreutils).
