Description

Memory leak exists in `coders/msl.c`. In the `WriteMSLImage` function of the `msl.c` file, resources are allocated. But the function returns early without releasing these allocated resources. ``` ==78983== Memcheck, a memory error detector ==78983== Copyright (C) 2002-2022, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al. ==78983== Using Valgrind-3.22.0 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info ==78983== ==78983== 177,196 (13,512 direct, 163,684 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 21 of 21 ==78983== at 0x4846828: malloc (in /usr/libexec/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so) ```
