xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-Xwayland: xorg-x11-server: out-of-bounds heap write in DRI2 DRIGetBuffers/DRIGetBuffersWithFormat

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in DRIGetBuffers/DRIGetBuffersWithFormat. A client that requests multiple DRI2BufferBackLeft attachments and one DRI2BufferFrontLeft can trigger an out-of-bounds heap write. This may be used to crash the server, or for...

xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-Xwayland: xorg-x11-server: use-after-free in miSyncDestroyFence()

A use-after-free flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in miSyncDestroyFence. A client that sets up multiple fence triggers can trigger a use-after-free function pointer call. An attacker would connect to the X server to set up a fence and await that fence, then a second X connection...

xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-Xwayland: xorg-x11-server: stack buffer overflow in XKB SetMap request via mapWidths indexing

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland. XkbSetMapChecks declares a fixed-size stack buffer mapWidths256 indexed by key type index. The helper function CheckKeyTypes writes to this buffer at a client-controlled offset, allowing a stack buffer overflow. This...
