CVE-2026-55999

A flaw was found in the glamorfontget function of the xorg-x11-server. This vulnerability, a heap buffer overflow, occurs when the server processes a specially crafted PCF font file where individual glyph metrics exceed the declared maximum bounds. An authenticated X client can exploit this by...

CVE-2026-56001

A flaw was found in libXfont2. In the BitmapScaleBitmaps function, an integer overflow can occur when calculating the memory needed for font glyphs. This overflow leads to a heap buffer overflow, where a smaller-than-required memory buffer is allocated. A local attacker can exploit this by loadin...

CVE-2026-56002

A flaw was found in libXfont2. A specially crafted PCF Portable Compiled Format font file, when processed by libXfont2, can lead to a buffer overflow. This occurs because the font parsing process does not properly validate the size of a bitmap buffer against the glyph metrics provided in the...

BIT-PILLOW-2026-54059 Pillow: PcfFontFile._load_bitmaps()`: `Image.frombytes()` called without `_decompression_bomb_check()` — bomb protection bypass via PCF font loading

Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 12.3.0, PIL/PcfFontFile.py loadbitmaps read glyph dimensions from the PCF METRICS section and passed them directly to Image.frombytes without calling Image.decompressionbombcheck, allowing crafted PCF font data to cause excessive memory allocation. Thi...
