+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid use-after-free in dix/dixfonts.c: doImageText()
+ [CVE-2013-4396]
+
+Save a pointer to the passed in closure structure before copying it
+and overwriting the *c pointer to point to our copy instead of the
+original.  If we hit an error, once we free(c), reset c to point to
+the original structure before jumping to the cleanup code that
+references *c.
+
+Since one of the errors being checked for is whether the server was
+able to malloc(c->nChars * itemSize), the client can potentially pass
+a number of characters chosen to cause the malloc to fail and the
+error path to be taken, resulting in the read from freed memory.
+
+Since the memory is accessed almost immediately afterwards, and the
+X server is mostly single threaded, the odds of the free memory having
+invalid contents are low with most malloc implementations when not using
+memory debugging features, but some allocators will definitely overwrite
+the memory there, leading to a likely crash.
