Hi Chris,
I can't speak intelligently about this issue. Could you possibly post sample
code which exhibits the behavior? I'll try and get it under a debugger (but
I think others will be much quicker).

Subject: RE: Memory Leak
Leaking isn't really the problem. I could handle a little leaking to get
"free" crypto. I can't handle memory corruptions. Just try creating most
crypto objects (such as an instance of
CryptoPP::AutoSeededX917RNG<CryptoPP::AES>) in a loop. You'll get a
crash long before you've run out of memory. This happens with so many
objects that it makes it quite difficult to get things done.

This is quite alarming. Does anyone have any indication as to [exactly]
where the memory leak(s) is/are? I also have code (going live date
approaching) that uses Crypto++' RSASS implementation.

I have the same observation, cryptopp causes severe memory leak.
