Package: libmilter1.0.1
Version: 8.14.4-5
Severity: normal

I’m not certain which package is at fault.  I’m starting here because both 
milters
use libmilter1.0.1.

The bug is socket-type agnostic.  It occurs with unix domain and with tcp 
sockets.

Every milter event allocates ram which is not free(2)d.  (It shows up in VmData 
in
/proc/$pid/status.)  I estimate that the process vm grows about 10k-20k per 
message.

Rss doesn’t grow. If swap usage grows, it doesn’t do so fast enough to confirm.
So the allocated pages may be untouched.

Eventually the milter gets a segv.  The forensics are insufficient to confirm
whether the leak causes or even contributes to the segv.
