handling code may allow the execution of arbitrary code through a
specially crafted pixmap. Slackware 10.2 was patched against this
vulnerability before its release, but new server packages are being issued
for Slackware 10.2 and -current using an improved patch, as there were
some bug reports using certain programs.

Here are the details from the Slackware 10.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/x11-6.8.2-i486-4.tgz: Rebuilt with a modified patch for
an earlier pixmap overflow issue. The patch released by X.Org was
slightly different than the one that was circulated previously, and is
an improved version. There have been reports that the earlier patch
broke WINE and possibly some other programs.
For more information, see:
