Descriptions

In Symantec Encryption Desktop before SED 10.4.1 MP2HF1, a kernel memory leak is a type of resource leak that can occur when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations in such a way that memory which is no longer needed is not released. In object-oriented programming, a memory leak may happen when an object is stored in memory but cannot be accessed by the running code.

En Symantec Encryption Desktop en versiones anteriores a SED 10.4.1 MP2HF1, una fuga de memoria de kernel es un tipo de fuga de recursos que puede ocurrir cuando un programa informÃ¡tico gestiona incorrectamente asignaciones de memoria de manera que la memoria que ya no se necesite no se libere. En programaciÃ³n orientada a objetos, puede ocurrir una fuga de memoria cuando un objeto se almacena en la memoria pero el cÃ³digo que se ejecuta no puede acceder a Ã©l.
