- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the XkbCopyNames function left a
dangling pointer to freed memory, resulting in out-of-bounds memory access on subsequent XkbGetKbdByName
requests.. This issue can lead to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running
privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions. (CVE-2022-4283)
- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs becuase the swap handler for the
XTestFakeInput request of the XTest extension may corrupt the stack if GenericEvents with lengths larger
than 32 bytes are sent through a the XTestFakeInput request. This issue can lead to local privileges
elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code execution for ssh X
forwarding sessions. This issue does not affect systems where client and server use the same byte order.
(CVE-2022-46340)
- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the XIPassiveUngrab
request accesses out-of-bounds memory when invoked with a high keycode or button code. This issue can lead
to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code
execution for ssh X forwarding sessions. (CVE-2022-46341)
- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the
XvdiSelectVideoNotify request may write to memory after it has been freed. This issue can lead to local
privileges elevation on systems where the X se (CVE-2022-46342)
- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the
ScreenSaverSetAttributes request may write to memory after it has been freed. This issue can lead to local
privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running privileged and remote code execution for ssh
X forwarding sessions. (CVE-2022-46343)
- A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This security flaw occurs because the handler for the XIChangeProperty
request has a length-validation issues, resulting in out-of-bounds memory reads and potential information
disclosure. This issue can lead to local privileges elevation on systems where the X server is running
privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions. (CVE-2022-46344)
