  xorg-x11-server-utils, and xorg-x11-apps clients that ship with the X
  Window System.

  It was found that the x11perfcomp utility included the current working
  directory in its PATH environment variable. Running x11perfcomp in an
  attacker-controlled directory would cause arbitrary code execution with
  the privileges of the user running x11perfcomp. (CVE-2011-2504)
  
  Also with this update, the xorg-x11-utils and xorg-x11-server-utils
  packages have been upgraded to upstream version 7.5, and the xorg-x11-apps
  package to upstream version 7.6, which provides a number of bug fixes and
  enhancements over the previous versions. (BZ#835277, BZ#835278, BZ#835281)
  
  All users of xorg-x11-utils, xorg-x11-server-utils, and xorg-x11-apps are
  advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these issues and
  add these enhancements.";
