```
The `syncprov` overlay allocates a specific `sync_control` structure and
attaches it to the operation's control list (`op->o_controls`) when parsing the
`LDAP_CONTROL_SYNC`.
* **Leak:** The core server's cleanup routine (`slap_free_ctrls`) is unaware
of this overlay-specific structure. If the operation is abandoned or fails
(e.g., during parsing of subsequent controls), the `sync_control` and its
internal allocations (context CSNs, session IDs) are never freed.
## Fix
* **Cleanup Callback:** Defined a new callback function
`syncprov_ctrl_cleanup` that properly frees the `sync_control` structure.
* **Registration:** Updated `syncprov_parseCtrl` to register this callback
(`op->o_callback`) immediately after allocating the control. This ensures
`slap_cleanup_play` invokes the cleanup routine during operation teardown,
preventing the leak.
