Ticket #242 (new defect)

Opened 14 years ago

Digest contexts are leaked.

Description

The library uses EVP_MD_CTX_create to create each digest, but never calls EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup. This causes the EVP library to leak the context descriptor for each call.

(require (planet soegaard/digest:1:2/digest))
(let loop () (bytes-digest #"Hello" 'sha1) (loop))

quickly consumes large amounts of memory, and doesn't release it.
