(X.Org X server: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities have been found in the
    ProcDbeGetVisualInfo() and the ProcDbeSwapBuffers() of the DBE
    extension, and ProcRenderAddGlyphs() in the Render extension.
  
Impact :

    A local attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
    the user running the X server, typically root.
  
Workaround :

    Disable the DBE extension by removing the 'Load dbe' directive in the
    Module section of xorg.conf, and explicitly disable the Render
    extension with ' Option 'RENDER' 'disable' ' in the Extensions section.
    Note: This could affect the functionality of some applications."
