    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2022-4283:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the XkbCopyNames function left a
    dangling pointer to freed memory, resulting in out-of-bounds memory access on subsequent XkbGetKbdByName
    requests.. This issue can lead to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running
    privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions.

    CVE-2022-46340:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs becuase the swap handler for the
    XTestFakeInput request of the XTest extension may corrupt the stack if GenericEvents with lengths larger
    than 32 bytes are sent through a the XTestFakeInput request. This issue can lead to local privileges
    elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code execution for ssh X
    forwarding sessions. This issue does not affect systems where client and server use the same byte order.

    CVE-2022-46341:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the XIPassiveUngrab
    request accesses out-of-bounds memory when invoked with a high keycode or button code. This issue can lead
    to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code
    execution for ssh X forwarding sessions.

    CVE-2022-46342:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the
    XvdiSelectVideoNotify request may write to memory after it has been freed. This issue can lead to local
    privileges elevation on systems where the X se

    CVE-2022-46343:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the
    ScreenSaverSetAttributes request may write to memory after it has been freed. This issue can lead to local
    privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code execution for ssh
    X forwarding sessions.

    CVE-2022-46344:
    A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the XIChangeProperty
    request has a length-validation issues, resulting in out-of-bounds memory reads and potential information
    disclosure. This issue can lead to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running
    privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions.
