Subject: give each ctl it's own copy of password
Git-repo: https://gitlab.com/fetchmail/fetchmail.git
Git-commit: 469b0a212e7f047ab16ef46a9158df5fb373e8c2

pwdb_* and passwordfile options may free and re-allocate password
for each poll operation.  Giving each context it's own copy of
the password should prevent accessing freed memory in another copy.

I haven't tested pwmd, but these seem like obvious fixes.
