Hi, I'm using Crypto++ for the first time, to do some decryption and verification. I've downloaded the 5.6.3 release zip.
I've written some test code using the RSA example on the wiki as a basis, but I'm getting memory leaks reported; unfortunately the leak detector I'm using only reports the location of the "new", not a full call stack, and due to Crypto++'s code structure this doesn't help me find the root cause. The code is fairly straightfoward: using namespace CryptoPP; RSA::PrivateKey privateKey; privateKey.Load(...); // verified this doesn't leak; it's a 3072-bit key std::string ciphertext(raw_ciphertext, sizeof(raw_ciphertext)); // 384 bytes RSAES_OAEP_SHA_Decryptor decryptor(privateKey); AutoSeededRandomPool rng; SecByteBlock decrypted(decryptor.MaxPlaintextLength(ciphertext.size()); auto result = decryptor.Decrypt(rng, (const uint8_t*)ciphertext.data(), ciphertext.size(), decrypted); assert(result.isValidCoding); decrypted.resize(result.messageLength); assert(0x20 == result.messageLength); The resulting decrypted data is correct. but after the function containing the above exits (so all objects should have been destroyed) I get the following leaks reported: Memory leak(s) found. Alloc num (658157) Leak size: 4 Allocated at: misc.h and line: 202.

Is this a known issue? Is there something else I need to call to clean up the memory? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
