Debian DSA-2784-1 : xorg-server - use-after-free. Pedro Ribeiro discovered a use-after-free in the handling of ImageText requests in the Xorg Xserver, resulting in denial of service or privilege escalation. Upgrade the xorg-server packages. For squeeze, fixed in version 1.7.7-17. For wheezy, fixed in version 1.12.4-6+deb7u1
