    xkb: Fix buffer overflow in _XkbSetCompatMap()
    
    The _XkbSetCompatMap() function attempts to resize the `sym_interpret`
    buffer.
    
    However, It didn't update its size properly. It updated `num_si` only,
    without updating `size_si`.
    
    This may lead to local privilege escalation if the server is run as root
    or remote code execution (e.g. x11 over ssh).
    
    CVE-2024-9632, ZDI-CAN-24756
    
    This vulnerability was discovered by:
    Jan-Niklas Sohn working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative
