Summary: ImageMagick has a Memory Leak in LoadOpenCLDeviceBenchmark() when parsing malformed XML

Details:
### Summary

A memory leak vulnerability exists in the `LoadOpenCLDeviceBenchmark()` function in `MagickCore/opencl.c`. When parsing a malformed OpenCL device profile XML file that contains `<device` elements without proper `/>` closing tags, the function fails to release allocated memory for string members (`platform_name`, `vendor_name`, `name`, `version`), leading to memory leaks that could result in resource exhaustion.

**Affected Version**: ImageMagick 7.1.2-12 and possibly earlier versions

---

### Details

The vulnerability is located in `MagickCore/opencl.c`, function `LoadOpenCLDeviceBenchmark()` (lines 754-911).

**Root Cause Analysis:**

1. When a `<device` tag is encountered, a `MagickCLDeviceBenchmark` structure is allocated (line 807-812)
2. String attributes (`platform`, `vendor`, `name`, `version`) are allocated via `ConstantString()` (lines 878, 885, 898, 900)
3. These strings are **only freed** when a `/>` closing tag is encountered (lines 840-849)
4. At function exit (lines 908-910), only the `device_benchmark` structure is freed, but **its member variables are not freed** if `/>` was never parsed

**Vulnerable Code (lines 908-910):**

```c
token=(char *) RelinquishMagickMemory(token);
device_benchmark=(MagickCLDeviceBenchmark *) RelinquishMagickMemory(
  device_benchmark);  // BUG: members (platform_name, vendor_name, name, version) not freed!
```

**Correct cleanup (only executed when `/>` is found, lines 840-849):**

```c
device_benchmark->platform_name=(char *) RelinquishMagickMemory(device_benchmark->platform_name);
device_benchmark->vendor_name=(char *) RelinquishMagickMemory(device_benchmark->vendor_name);
device_benchmark->name=(char *) RelinquishMagickMemory(device_benchmark->name);
device_benchmark->version=(char *) RelinquishMagickMemory(device_benchmark->version);
device_benchmark=(MagickCLDeviceBenchmark *) RelinquishMagickMemory(device_benchmark);
```

### PoC

**Environment:**
- OS: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Linux 6.8.0-87-generic x86_64)
- Compiler: GCC 11.4.0
- ImageMagick: 7.1.2-13 (commit `a52c1b402be08ef8ae193f28ac5b2e120f2fa26f`)

**Step 1: Build ImageMagick with AddressSanitizer**

```bash
cd ImageMagick
./configure \
    CFLAGS="-g -O0 -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer" \
    CXXFLAGS="-g -O0 -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer" \
    LDFLAGS="-fsanitize=address" \
    --disable-openmp
make -j$(nproc)
```

**Step 2: Create malformed XML file**

**Step 3: Place file in OpenCL cache directory**

```bash
mkdir -p ~/.cache/ImageMagick
cp malformed_opencl_profile.xml ~/.cache/ImageMagick/ImagemagickOpenCLDeviceProfile.xml
```

**Step 4: Run ImageMagick with leak detection**

```bash
export ASAN_OPTIONS="detect_leaks=1:symbolize=1"
./utilities/magick -size 100x100 xc:red output.png
```

**ASAN Output:**

```
