"Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that there was an input validation failure
in the X.Org display server.

Insufficient checks on the lengths of the XInput extension's
ChangeFeedbackControl request could have lead to out of bounds memory
accesses in the X server. These issues can lead to privilege
escalation for authorised clients, particularly on systems where the X
server is running as a privileged user.

For Debian 9 'Stretch', this problem has been fixed in version
2:1.19.2-1+deb9u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.

For the detailed security status of xorg-server please refer to its
security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/xorg-server

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
