CVSS v3.1 |
| xterm, Eterm, and rxvt allow an attacker to cause a denial of service by embedding certain escape characters which force the window to be resized. |
| Guessable magic cookies in X Windows allows remote attackers to execute commands, e.g. through xterm. |
| XFree86 startx command is vulnerable to a symlink attack, allowing local users to create files in restricted directories, possibly allowing them to gain privileges or cause a denial of service. |
| libX11 X library allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a resource mask of 0, which causes libX11 to go into an infinite loop. |
| Buffer overflow in xlib in XFree 3.3.x possibly allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long DISPLAY environment variable or a -display command line parameter. |
| XFree86 4.1.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an out-of-bounds array index when using the GLX extension and Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI). |
| Integer signedness errors in XFree86 4.1.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code when using the GLX extension and Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI). |
| xdm, with the authComplain variable set to false, allows arbitrary attackers to connect to the X server if the xdm auth directory does not exist. |
| Untrusted search path vulnerability in libX11.so in xfree86, when used in setuid or setgid programs, allows local users to gain root privileges via a modified LD_PRELOAD environment variable that points to a malicious module. |
| Multiple integer overflows in (1) the xpmParseColors function in parse.c, (2) XpmCreateImageFromXpmImage, (3) CreateXImage, (4) ParsePixels, and (5) ParseAndPutPixels for libXpm before 6.8.1 may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed XPM image file. |
| Multiple vulnerabilities in libXpm for 6.8.1 and earlier, as used in XFree86 and other packages, include (1) multiple integer overflows, (2) out-of-bounds memory accesses, (3) directory traversal, (4) shell metacharacter, (5) endless loops, and (6) memory leaks, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or execute arbitrary code via a certain XPM image file. NOTE: it is highly likely that this candidate will be SPLIT into other candidates in the future, per CVE's content decisions. |
| scan.c for LibXPM may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a negative bitmap_unit value that leads to a buffer overflow. |
| Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in (1) xpmParseColors in parse.c, (2) ParseAndPutPixels in create.c, and (3) ParsePixels in parse.c for libXpm before 6.8.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed XPM image file. |
| Integer overflow in the CIDAFM function in X.Org 6.8.2 and XFree86 X server allows local users to execute arbitrary code via crafted Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) files with a modified number of character metrics (StartCharMetrics), which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow. |
| The xterm terminal emulator in XFree86 4.2.0 and earlier allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands. |
| Buffer overflow in XFree86 3.3.x allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long -xkbmap parameter. |
| libICE in XFree86 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by specifying a large value which is not properly checked by the SKIP_STRING macro. |
| The default configuration of XFCE 3.5.1 bypasses the Xauthority access control mechanism with an "xhost + localhost" command in the xinitrc program, which allows local users to sniff X Windows traffic and gain privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in fbglyph.c in XFree86 before 4.2.0, related to glyph clipping for large origins, allows attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly gain privileges via a large number of characters, possibly through the web page search form of KDE Konqueror or from an xterm command with a long title. |
