A memory leak is when allocated memory that is no longer needed is not deallocated. Eventually, the memory pool is unable to satisfy an allocation request, and the program fails. A memory leak is a programming bug.

When class libraries leak memory, they need to be fixed, just like any other piece of code that has bugs. If they came from a vendor, then that vendor needs to fix them.
