The variable "head" is allocated and initialized as a list before allocating the first "item" for the list. If the allocation of "item" fails, it frees "head" and then jumps to the label "free_now" which will process head and free it. This will cause a UAF of "head", and it doesn't need to free it before jumping to the "free_now" label as that code will free it.
