There are a few problems here:

Remember you're not returning a new string (const char*), since you're 'peeking' at the value:

  • link broken string should just be a static string (no g_strdup).
  • The remaining code either returns a new string, or a static empty one, and leaks memory (you never free token while running the strsep loop, and if there are multiple separators the intermediate ones leak).

I would suggest using g_strrstr as it works from the end of the string and returns a pointer or NULL, and no new strings need to be created:

    const char *str, *ptr;
    str = eel_ref_str_peek (file->details->name);

    if ((ptr = g_strrstr (str, "."))) {
        return ptr + 1;
    }

    return "";

We usually try to stick with glib functions, as they're generally more convenient (and often safer).

Here you're returning a new string (char * return), so you would need to g_strdup the peeked extension name.
