Unlike other elements of the keymap, this pointer was freed but not reset. On a subsequent XkbGetKbdByName request, the server may access already freed memory. CVE-2022-4283, ZDI-CAN-19530 This vulnerability was discovered by: Jan-Niklas Sohn working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net> Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com> |

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the
current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients. The X server
or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory,
so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of
time. The default keymap for any server is usually stored in:
X<num>-default.xkm
where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes
it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same
directory.
Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on
different hosts could cause problems.
