[Bug 754470] Re: syndaemon consumes 100% CPU

 

Emmanuel,

The XRecord library is in libXtst. In its async handler
(record_async_handler), there's no checking of the X reply type other
than to check whether it's an error or not. If it gets a non error
reply, then it assumes it's a record reply without actually checking.
This will cause undefined execution once we get to
parse_reply_call_callback.

The next step would be to add a check in record_async_handler to
determine if the reply is really an xrecord reply. If not, just toss it
and move on. I'll make a test package for this in a bit, but it's end of
day for me so someone may beat me to the punch :).
