xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-Xwayland: xorg-x11-server: stack buffer overflow in font alias resolution due to libXfont2 name length mismatch

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland. A mismatch between the X server and the libXfont2 library's maximum font name length can cause a stack buffer overflow during font alias resolution. The server allocates a 256 byte stack buffer but libXfont2's alias...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2020-14310

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - There is an issue on grub2 before version 2.06 at function readsectionasstring. It expects a font name to be at max UINT32MAX - 1 length in bytes but it doesn't...

There is an issue on grub2 before version 2.06 at function read_section_as_string(). It expects a font name to be at max UINT32_MAX - 1 length in bytes but it doesn't verify it before proceed with buffer allocation to read the value from the font value. An attacker may leverage that by crafting a malicious font file which has a name with UINT32_MAX leading to read_section_as_string() to an arithmetic overflow zero-sized allocation and further heap-based buffer overflow.
