Sure, in fact I think we could just do:
- snprintf(algo_hash, algo_hash_len, "%s:%s", algo_name, hash); - audit_log_untrustedstring(ab, algo_hash); + audit_log_untrustedstring(ab, algo_name); + audit_log_format(ab, ":"); + audit_log_untrustedstring(ab, hash);
and get rid of the allocation entirely. I'll test and make sure it works and then re-send.
Cheers,
Tycho
