The issue is that the loop in CheckModifierMap() reads from wire without
verifying that the data is within the request bounds.
The req->totalModMapKeys value could exceed the actual data provided,
causing reads of uninitialized memory.
To fix that issue, we add a bounds check using _XkbCheckRequestBounds,
but for that, we need to also pass a ClientPtr parameter, which is not
a problem since CheckModifierMap() is a private, static function.

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.
For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server
