[PATCH] Fix a possible buffer overflow in crypt (in lowmem situation only), fix lowmem handling in chroot_canon


Hi!

2004-06-08  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	[BZ #199]
	* crypt/md5-crypt.c (__md5_crypt): Only update buflen if realloc
	succeeds.  Reported by Miles Ohlrich <miles@cray.com>.

	* elf/chroot_canon.c (chroot_canon): Avoid segfault if first malloc
	fails.  Avoid memory leak if realloc fails.
