1.8.1
This release fixes the --enable-thread-safety-constructor option to the
configure script to work as intended. In the previous release, the changes
for this option may not have been enabled when the option was not specified
or when the --enable option was specified.
While we have enabled it by default, believing that doing so will reduce
the number of bugs users encounter running libX11 clients, in some cases
it may expose bugs in which clients had previously gotten away with calling
libX11 functions while a libX11 lock is already held, and thus now deadlock,
as discussed in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/157 .

configure.ac: Fix --enable-thread-safety-constructor

1.8
The highlight of this release is that we now try to initialize thread
safety ourselves, rather than hope the application does it. This should
resolve a number of long-standing bugs with the libxcb integration,
since the socket handoff mechanism essentially has to be thread-safe.
But regressions are always possible, so please report any issues
introduced by this release.

This release of libX11 corrects a packaging problem in 1.7.3 which caused
the m4 files needed for autoreconf to not be included in the tarballs.
(ProTip: if you have an ACLOCAL variable set in your environment, and it
doesn't have "-I m4" ahead of any other -I options, then automake may
assume that any m4 files found via those other -I options don't need to
be included in the tarballs when you run "make dist".)
As a bonus, this release also includes one tiny typo fix in the XIM specs.
This release includes a number of bug fixes and adds support for the

libX11 version 1.7.0 includes a new API, hence the change from the 1.6
series to 1.7:
* XSetIOErrorExitHandler which provides a mechanism for applications
to recover from I/O error conditions instead of being forced to
exit. Thanks to Carlos Garnacho for this.
This release includes a bunch of bug fixes, some which have been pending for over three years:
* A bunch of nls cleanups to remove obsolete entries and clean up
formatting of the ist. Thanks to Benno Schulenberg for these.
* Warning fixes and other cleanups across a huge swath of the
library. Thanks to Alan Coopersmith for these.
* Memory allocation bugs, including leaks and use after free in the
locale code. Thanks to Krzesimir Nowak, Jacek Caban and Vittorio
Zecca for these.
* Thread safety fixes in the locale code. Thanks to Jacek Caban for
these.
* poll_for_response race condition fix. Thanks to Frediano Ziglio for
the bulk of this effort, and to Peter Hutterer for careful review
and improvements.
Version 1.7.0 includes a couple of new locales:
* ia and ie locales. Thanks to Carmina16 for these.
There are also numerous compose entries added, including:
* |^ or ^| for ↑, |v or v| for ↓, ~~ for ≈. Thanks to Antti
Savolainen for this.
* Allowing use of 'v' for caron, in addition to 'c', so things like
vC for Č, vc for č. Thanks to Benno Schulenberg for this.
* Compose sequences LT, lt for '<', and GT, gt for '>' for keyboards
where those are difficult to access. Thanks to Jonathan Belsewir
for this.

Heap corruption in the X input method client in libX11
======================================================
CVE-2020-14344
The X Input Method (XIM) client implementation in libX11 has some
integer overflows and signed/unsigned comparison issues that can lead
to heap corruption when handling malformed messages from an input
method.
Patches
=======
Patches for these issues have been commited to the libX11 git repository.
libX11 1.6.10 will be released shortly and will include those patches.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11
commit 1703b9f3435079d3c6021e1ee2ec34fd4978103d (HEAD -> master)
Change the data_len parameter of _XimAttributeToValue() to CARD16
It's coming from a length in the protocol (unsigned) and passed
to functions that expect unsigned int parameters (_XCopyToArg()
and memcpy()).
commit 1a566c9e00e5f35c1f9e7f3d741a02e5170852b2
Zero out buffers in functions
It looks like uninitialized stack or heap memory can leak
out via padding bytes.
commit 2fcfcc49f3b1be854bb9085993a01d17c62acf60
Fix more unchecked lengths
commit 388b303c62aa35a245f1704211a023440ad2c488
fix integer overflows in _XimAttributeToValue()
commit 0e6561efcfaa0ae7b5c74eac7e064b76d687544e
Fix signed length values in _XimGetAttributeID()
The lengths are unsigned according to the specification. Passing
negative values can lead to data corruption.
Thanks
======
X.Org thanks Todd Carson for reporting these issues to our security
team and assisting them in understanding them and providing fixes.

Xlib-based extension libraries, to help them avoid integer overflows when
it is necessary to discard data; removal of ancient, unused, incomplete
support for the Cray Unicos OS, and the DECnet and TLI transport types;

cleanups to improve compatibility with doclifter; and various other
code cleanups and compiler warning fixes.

There are at least two packages ("graphics/cairo" and "x11/xlsclients")
which require this. And we definitely want to avoid the situation where
both the based and "pkgsrc" version get used at the same time.
Bump all the packages which use the "x11/libxcb" package except the two
which already require version 1.6. For those package remove the manually
set minimum required version.
Change discussed with Thomas Klausner in private e-mail.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.5.0
------------------------
At long last, the stable release of Xlib 1.5.0.
While it only strictly requires libxcb 1.2, it's recommended that libxcb 1.8.1
be used to get the fix for network connection fallback from Unix sockets to
TCP that replaces the code previously found in libX11.
Since there have been no changes since the final release candidate,
here's the full list of changes since libX11 1.4.4:

Another bug fix release of libX11 brings another large set of fixes
found by static analysis or to ease further static analysis, many
documentation fixes and improvments, and improved assertions to
help users and developers figure out why Xlib just crashed on them.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.4.3
-----------------------
Tue Apr 5 14:18:18 PDT 2011 by Alan Coopersmith
A minor release of libX11 to add support for the Sinhala keysyms required
by the recent xkb-config 2.2 release. Note that to get full support for
these keysyms you will also need to upgrade to x11proto 7.0.21 before
building the new libX11.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.4.2
-----------------------
This bugfix release pulls in a ton of fixes for problems found by code static
analysis tools. Many thanks to everyone who has helped find and fix these
issues before they turned into nasty problems.
Additionally, Jamey Sharp has provided some fixes for Display lock handling
that caused some deadlocks when using xcb for transport (which was optional
in 1.3.x and is required in 1.4.x), so this update is highly recomended to
users of multi-threaded Xlib applications.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.4.1
------------------------
Tue, 11 Jan 2011 22:35:19 -0800 by Alan Coopersmith
This bugfix release corrects two small issues in Xlib event handling,
and provides, for the first time ever, the XKB API spec in DocBook format.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.4.0
------------------------
Sun Nov 21 14:38:32 PST 2010 by Alan Coopersmith
After 3 release candidates, it's finally done - libX11 1.4 is released.
As previously warned, libX11 1.4 *requires* libxcb. The Xlib 1.3 branch
continues to support the --without-xcb option for the benefit of any
remaining distributors who do not yet ship XCB in their stable releases.
[ANNOUNCE] libX11 1.3.6
------------------------

Just a small maintenance release for libX11; pending any catastrophic
bugs, this will probably be the last release from the 1.3.x branch. The
XStringToKeysym changes should provide a not-insignificant speedup for
X server and application startup.
I think that patch-aa is incorrect, at least on MirBSD. It supposes that
pthread_self is already in libc. However, I won't touch the patches
during the freeze.
