Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:260
http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : x11-server
Date : October 28, 2013
Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in
x11-server:
The fbComposite function in fbpict.c in the Render extension in the
X server in X.Org X11R7.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause
a denial of service (memory corruption and daemon crash) or possibly
execute arbitrary code via a crafted request, related to an incorrect
macro definition (CVE-2010-1166).
The LockServer function in os/utils.c in X.Org xserver before 1.11.2
allows local users to determine the existence of arbitrary files via a
symlink attack on a temporary lock file, which is handled differently
if the file exists (CVE-2011-4028).
The LockServer function in os/utils.c in X.Org xserver before 1.11.2
allows local users to change the permissions of arbitrary files to
444, read those files, and possibly cause a denial of service (removed
execution permission) via a symlink attack on a temporary lock file
(CVE-2011-4029).
X.Org X server before 1.13.4 and 1.4.x before 1.14.1 does not
properly restrict access to input events when adding a new hot-plug
device, which might allow physically proximate attackers to obtain
sensitive information, as demonstrated by reading passwords from a tty
(CVE-2013-1940).
Use-after-free vulnerability in the doImageText function in
dix/dixfonts.c in the xorg-server module before 1.14.4 in X.Org X11
allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon
crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted ImageText
request that triggers memory-allocation failure (CVE-2013-4396).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
