Subject: [PATCH] KCM: fix memory leak
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
The copy of 'secret' argument - `secret_val.data` - was left hanging
on `sss_sec_ctx`, effectively resulting in a memory leak.
But this copy isn't actually required as this data isn't modified in
below operations.
This is a backport of https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/pull/7823
:fixes:'sssd_kcm' memory leak was fixed.
