Package: uim
Version: 1:1.5.7-9
Severity: normal
When in .XCompose file is defined character which not exist in current locale,
uim crashes
for example, if I put
<Multi_key> <plus> <plus> : "Г" numbersign # NUMBER SIGN
(any cyrillic letter instead of Г also works) in .XCompose and run, for
example, gedit with LANG=C, I get segmentation fault
the problem seems in compose.c, function parse_compose_line
in this fragment of code
{
char *result;
result = g_locale_to_utf8(rhs_string_mb, -1, NULL, NULL, NULL);
rhs_string_utf8 = strdup(result);
g_free(result);
}
g_locale_to_utf8 returns NULL, if it cannot convert string from current locale
to utf8, and on the next string we have strdup(NULL) -> segmentation fault
I think there should be check of returned value.
