"Ilja van Sprundel of IOActive discovered several security issues in
the X.Org libXfont library, which may allow a local, authenticated
user to attempt to raise privileges; or a remote attacker who can
control the font server to attempt to execute code with the privileges
of the X server.
- CVE-2014-0209
Integer overflow of allocations in font metadata file
parsing could allow a local user who is already
authenticated to the X server to overwrite other memory
in the heap.
- CVE-2014-0210
libxfont does not validate length fields when parsing
xfs protocol replies allowing to write past the bounds
of allocated memory when storing the returned data from
the font server.
- CVE-2014-0211
Integer overflows calculating memory needs for xfs
replies could result in allocating too little memory and
then writing the returned data from the font server past
the end of the allocated buffer."
