/**
* @name Memory leak on failed call to realloc
* @description The expression mem = realloc (mem, size) is potentially dangerous, if the call fails, we will lose the pointer to the memory block.
* An unsuccessful call is possible not only when trying to allocate a large amount of memory, but also when the process memory is strongly segmented.
* We recommend storing the result in a temporary variable and eliminating memory leak.
* @kind problem
* @id cpp/memory-leak-on-failed-call-to-realloc
* @problem.severity warning
* @precision medium
* @tags security
* @tags correctness
