Since arg_map->size is updated to a non-zero value before memory\nallocation, free_choose_arg_map() will iterate over arg_map->args and\ndereference a NULL pointer.\n\nTo prevent this potential NULL pointer dereference and make\nfree_choose_arg_map() more resilient, add checks for pointers before\niterating.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-01-23T15:24:12.191+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T18:25:26.442+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
