Description of problem: The memory leak in XmGetVisibility(), despite declared as fixed in OpenMotif-2.2.3, is STILL THERE, affecting all RedHat/Fedora releases upto FC4 inclusive. The bug was really fixed in OpenMotif-2.3, so that FC5 is safe. Since this serious bug is present in almost ALL RH/FC releases, it is definitely worth an update. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.2, 2.3 How reproducible: Always Additional info: Ironically, it WAS fixed in 2.1 for RHEL, but not in 2.2 series. This is OpenMotif #1134, details are at http://bugs.motifzone.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1134 The fix is trivial -- to "backport" the lib/Xm/Traversal.c, which only differs in several-lines-fix for this bug (some care should be taken, since 2.3's fixed version is OLDER than buggy 2.2.3's).
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
I can answer even without any further testing: FC5 and FC6 ARE SAFE. That's because only 2.2 is vulnerable, while FC5 is shipped with openmotif-2.3 (which is already okay), and FC6 doesn't include openmotif at all (due to that stupid licence problem). And -- yes, I did tests with FC5 at the time of writing this bugreport, and those had confirmed that this bug is fixed there. However, Christian, if you have any connection to RHEL stuff -- RHEL can still be vulnerable, since in ships 2.*2*, which was vulnerable in June-2006 and wasn't updated since that time. And RHEL wouldn't be EOL'd for long time...
FC-3 and FC-4 are EOL and it has been fixed for the RHEL packages already. Closing as NOT A BUG.
