The XSELINUX code will label resources at creation by checking the
access mode. When the access mode is DixCreateAccess, it will call the
function to label the new resource SELinuxLabelResource().
However, GLX buffers do not go through the XACE hooks when created,
hence leaving the resource actually unlabeled.
When, later, the client tries to create another resource using that
drawable (like a GC for example), the XSELINUX code would try to use
the security ID of that object which has never been labeled, get a NULL
pointer and crash when checking whether the requested permissions are
granted for subject security ID.
To avoid the issue, make sure to call the XACE hooks when creating the
GLX buffers.
Credit goes to Donn Seeley <donn@xmission.com> for providing the patch.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
