Roman Fiedler found that libX11, the X11 protocol client library, was vulnerable to protocol command injection due to insufficient validation of arguments to some functions.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 2:1.6.4-3+deb9u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your libx11 packages.

For the detailed security status of libx11 please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/libx11

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.
