| a863aa74-24be-11da-8882-000e0c33c2dc | X11 server -- pixmap allocation vulnerability
Allocating large pixmaps by a client can trigger an integer
overflow in the X server, potentially leading to execution of
arbitrary code with elevated (root) privileges.

| fe2b6597-c9a4-11dc-8da8-0008a18a9961 | xorg -- multiple vulnerabilities
Matthieu Herrb of X.Org reports:
Several vulnerabilities have been identified in server code
of the X window system caused by lack of proper input validation
on user controlled data in various parts of the software,
causing various kinds of overflows.
Exploiting these overflows will crash the X server or,
under certain circumstances allow the execution of arbitray
machine code.
When the X server is running with root privileges (which is the
case for the Xorg server and for most kdrive based servers),
these vulnerabilities can thus also be used to raise
privileges.
All these vulnerabilities, to be exploited succesfully, require
either an already established connection to a running X server
(and normally running X servers are only accepting authenticated
connections), or a shell access with a valid user on the machine
where the vulnerable server is installed.

Matthieu Herrb of X.Org reports:
Several vulnerabilities have been found in the server-side code
of some extensions in the X Window System. Improper validation of
client-provided data can cause data corruption.
Exploiting these overflows will crash the X server or,
under certain circumstances allow the execution of arbitray machine
code.
When the X server is running with root privileges (which is the case
