CWE-1091: Use of Object without Invoking Destructor Method
Weakness ID : 1091
Structure : Simple
Abstraction : Base
Description
The product contains a method that accesses an object but does not later invoke the element's
associated finalize/destructor method.
Extended Description
This issue can make the product perform more slowly by retaining memory and/or other resources
longer than necessary. If the relevant code is reachable by an attacker, then this performance
problem might introduce a vulnerability.
