The query_formats function of the showpalette filter tries to allocate two lists of formats which on success are attached to more permanent objects (AVFilterLinks) for storage afterwards. If attaching a list to an AVFilterLink succeeds, the link becomes one (in this case the only one) of the owners of the list. Yet if attaching the first list to its link succeeds and attaching the second list fails, both lists were manually freed, which means that the first link's pointer to the first list becomes dangling and there will be a double-free when the first link is cleaned up automatically. This commit fixes this by removing the custom free code; this will temporarily add a leaking codepath (if attaching a list to a link fails, the list will leak), but this will be fixed shortly by making sure that an AVFilterFormats without owner will be automatically freed when attaching it to an AVFilterLink fails. Notice at most one list leaks because as of this commit a new list is only allocated after the old list has been successfully attached to a link.
