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...

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

A use-after-free flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in SyncChangeCounter. A client that sets up multiple SyncCounters can trigger a use-after-free when destroying those counters via a second client connection while changing those counters. This may be used to crash the server, or f...

CVE-2026-55655
