That shows that this has been since upgraded, and that it has been up for ~ 3 weeks.
Looking at my apt logs, then this bug is actually against 5.6.0-0ubuntu4 , but I'm filing it anyway, as waiting 3 weeks to see if I see this problem again probably isn't going to help anyone.

Thank you for your bug report, quite some leaks got fixed since you reported the issue, is that still happening? Could you get a valgrind log for it?
