commit 70976d87f18d15c2ccc28eb7728e4822d3849e0d
Author: Rami Ylimäki <rami.ylimaki at vincit.fi>

    Prevent theoretical double free and leak on get_peer_sock_name.
    
    Variable new_sockname will leak and sockname will be double freed if
    both of the cases shown below are true.
    
    1. realloc succeeds and doesn't return the original pointer
    2. calling socket_func fails
