Detail
| An input validation flaw was found in X.org's Security and Record extensions. A malicious authorized client could exploit the issue to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the X.org server (CVE-2008-1377). An input validation flaw was found in X.org's MIT-SHM extension. A client connected to the X.org server could read arbitrary server memory, resulting in the disclosure of sensitive data of other users of the X.org server (CVE-2008-1379). Multiple integer overflows were found in X.org's Render extension. A malicious authorized client could explot these issues to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the X.org server (CVE-2008-2360, CVE-2008-2361). The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues. |
