This is patch file attached to fix the issue.

After freeing any pointer which is pointing to dynamically allocated memory,
Null should be assigned to pointer immediately after freeing to avoid dangling
pointer situation.
In the code after freeing the memory under some condition null was not assigned
to the pointer and outside the condition block it was getting assigned to
another pointer.
