SANITIZE=address and SANITIZE=leak are the flags we use to turn on the AddressSanitizer (https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizer) and LeakSanitizer (https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerLeakSanitizer).

As the latter URL shows it's a way to instrument a program to die on exit if unreferenced malloc'd memory wasn't free'd.
