https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1406286 It was found that there is a theoretical leak of host private key material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key material to unprivileged users.
