Looking at ProcShmGetImage() there's a bunch of checking for out-of-bounds coordinates, but ProcShmPutImage() lacks this checking. Is this patch reasonable or too much (it does fix the problem) but I'm wondering if the bounds are too strict for PutImage ? Alan. Index: shm.c =

Having looked at Bugzilla #978 it shows that it's very easy to crash the Xserver when using out-of-bounds coordinates that get mixed up when passing in int's that get converted to short's during the client->server conversation. Seeing as PutImage gets pushed through the CopyArea path, I'm sure th
