Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

An issue was discovered in NFStream 5.2.0. Because some allocated modules are not correctly freed, if the nfstream object is directly destroyed without being used after it is created, it will cause a memory leak that may result in a local denial of service (DoS).
