xorg-x11-server: DeepCopyPointerClasses use-after-free leads to privilege elevation

A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This issue occurs due to a dangling pointer in DeepCopyPointerClasses that can be exploited by ProcXkbSetDeviceInfo and ProcXkbGetDeviceInfo to read and write into freed memory. This can lead to local privilege elevation on systems where the X server runs...

[SECURITY] Fedora 37 Update: ImageMagick-6.9.12.86-1.fc37

ImageMagick is an image display and manipulation tool for the X Window System. ImageMagick can read and write JPEG, TIFF, PNM, GIF, and Photo CD image formats.

xorg-x11-server: XvdiSelectVideoNotify use-after-free

A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This flaw occurs because the handler for the XvdiSelectVideoNotify request may write to memory after it has been freed. This flaw can lead to local privilege elevation on systems where the X server runs privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding...

xorg-x11-server: XTestSwapFakeInput stack overflow

A vulnerability was found in X.Org. The issue occurs due to the swap handler for the XTestFakeInput request of the XTest extension, possibly corrupting the stack if GenericEvents with lengths larger than 32 bytes are sent through the XTestFakeInput request. This flaw can lead to local privilege...
