             Bug #: 53384
           Summary: Crash or memory corruption: _cairo_damage_add_boxes
                    generates broken single list
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: cairo
           Version: 1.12.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: cworth at cworth.org
        ReportedBy: fmot.fics at gmail.com
         QAContact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org


It is necessary to add the following line to _cairo_damage_add_boxes function:

--- a/src/cairo-damage.c
+++ b/src/cairo-damage.c
@@ -128,6 +128,7 @@ _cairo_damage_add_boxes(cairo_damage_t *damage,
     chunk->count = count;

     damage->tail->next = chunk;
+    damage->tail = chunk;
     damage->remain = size - count;

     memcpy (damage->tail->base, boxes + n,

Otherwise the "tail" of the single list is not updated but the "remain" field
is. That leads to either crash or memory corruption (which I encountered).
