memory leak while capturing image from camera

Question

there was a strange issue happening in my app, the issue is while I try to capture images from camera like 4-5 images captured using camera. there is a memory leak showing in instruments.

Due to this memory leaks if I put my app in background and lock the screen the iphone restarts.

please check the screen shot of the leak information

I'm using a simple picker to capture image from camera and then dismissing it. then why is there this leak.

let picker = UIImagePickerController()

 picker.delegate = self
 picker.allowsEditing = false

 picker.sourceType = .camera
 self.present(picker, animated: true)



public func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController,
                                  didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [UIImagePickerController.InfoKey: Any]) {
    if let image = info[.originalImage] as? UIImage {
        processSelectedImage(image: image)
    }
    picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}

This is due to low memory of your device and a lot of other processes are running in app, try to cleanup the device and try again.

Better way is to restart your device and run again.
