CVE: CVE-2022-3554
Upstream-Status: Backport
Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@arm.com>
From 1d11822601fd24a396b354fa616b04ed3df8b4ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] fix a memory leak in XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback
Analysis:
_XimRegisterIMInstantiateCallback() opens an XIM and closes it using
the internal function pointers, but the internal close function does
not free the pointer to the XIM (this would be done in XCloseIM()).
Report/patch:

From: Po Lu <luangruo@yahoo.com>
To: xorg-devel@lists.x.org
Subject: Re: Yet another leak in Xlib
For reference, here's how I'm calling XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback:
XSetLocaleModifiers ("");
XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback (compositor.display,
XrmGetDatabase (compositor.display),
(char *) compositor.resource_name,
(char *) compositor.app_name,
IMInstantiateCallback, NULL);
and XMODIFIERS is:
@im=ibus
