CVE-2018-14599

An off-by-one error has been discovered in libX11 in functions XGetFontPath, XListExtensions, and XListFonts. An attacker who can either configure a malicious X server or modify the data coming from one could use this flaw to make the program crash or have other unspecified effects, caused by the...

CVE-2018-14600

An out of bounds write, limited to NULL bytes, was discovered in libX11 in functions XListExtensions and XGetFontPath. The length field is considered as a signed value, which makes the library access memory before the intended buffer. An attacker who can either configure a malicious X server or...

CVE-2018-14598

It was discovered that libX11 does not properly validate input coming from the server, causing XListExtensions and XGetFontPath functions to produce an invalid list of elements that in turn make XFreeExtensionsList and XFreeFontPath access invalid memory. An attacker who can either configure a...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

libX11.so is vulnerable to denial of service DoS attacks. A malicious user can pass a reply where the first string overflows the number of bytes transmitted, causing a variable to be set NULL, crashing the application...

CVE-2018-14598

An issue was discovered in XListExtensions in ListExt.c in libX11 through 1.6.5. A malicious server can send a reply in which the first string overflows, causing a variable to be set to NULL that will be freed later on, leading to DoS segmentation fault...
