This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

 Multiple overflows were discovered in the XFree86-Misc, XInput-Misc,
 TOG-CUP, EVI, and MIT-SHM extensions which did not correctly validate
 function arguments. An authenticated attacker could send specially
 crafted requests and gain root privileges. (CVE-2007-5760, CVE-2007-6427,
 CVE-2007-6428, CVE-2007-6429)

 It was discovered that the X.org server did not use user privileges when
 attempting to open security policy files. Local attackers could exploit
 this to probe for files in directories they would not normally be able
 to access. (CVE-2007-5958)

 It was discovered that the PCF font handling code did not correctly
 validate the size of fonts. An authenticated attacker could load a
 specially crafted font and gain additional privileges. (CVE-2008-0006)");
