This fixes issue #2535, that was actually an hiredis library bug (I
submitted an issue and fix to the redis/hiredis repo as well).
When an asynchronous hiredis connection subscribes to a Pub/Sub channel
and gets an error, and in other related conditions, the function
redisProcessCallbacks() enters a code path where the link is
disconnected, however the function returns before freeing the allocated
reply object. This causes a memory leak. The memory leak was trivial to
trigger in Redis Sentinel, which uses hiredis, every time we tried to
subscribe to an instance that required a password, in case the Sentinel
was configured either with the wrong password or without password at
all. In this case, the -AUTH error caused the leaking code path to be
executed.
It was verified with Valgrind that after this change the leak no longer
happens in Sentinel with a misconfigured authentication password.
This is hiredis f225c276be7fd0646019b51023e3f41566633dfe
This update includes all changes that diverged inside of Redis since
the last update. This version also allows optional source address
binding for connections which we need for some Sentinel deployments.
This version of hiredis merges modifications of the Redis fork with
latest changes in the hiredis repository.
The same version was pushed on the hiredis repository and will probably
merged into the master branch in short time.
