CVE-2020-14346

A flaw was found in xorg-x11-server before 1.20.9. An integer underflow in the X input extension protocol decoding in the X server may lead to arbitrary access of memory contents. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

A flaw was found in xorg-x11-server before 1.20.9. An integer underflow in the X input extension protocol decoding in the X server may lead to arbitrary access of memory contents. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

X.Org is an open-source implementation of the X Window System. It provides the basic low-level functionality that full-fledged graphical user interfaces are designed upon.

Mesa provides a 3D graphics API that is compatible with Open Graphics Library (OpenGL). It also provides hardware-accelerated drivers for many popular graphics chips.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: egl-wayland (1.1.5), libdrm (2.4.103), libglvnd (1.3.2), libinput (1.16.3), libwacom (1.6), mesa (20.3.3), xorg-x11-server (1.20.10). (BZ#1878160, BZ#1886648, BZ#1887654, BZ#1887655)

Security Fix(es):

• xorg-x11-server: Out-of-bounds access in XkbSetNames function (CVE-2020-14345)

• xorg-x11-server: Integer underflow in the X input extension protocol (CVE-2020-14346)

• xorg-x11-server: Out-of-bounds access in XkbSetMap function (CVE-2020-14360)

• xorg-x11-server: XkbSelectEvents integer underflow privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2020-14361)

• xorg-x11-server: XRecordRegisterClients integer underflow privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2020-14362)

• libX11: Integer overflow leads to double free in locale handling (CVE-2020-14363)

• xorg-x11-server: XkbSetDeviceInfo heap-based buffer overflow privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2020-25712)

• libX11: Heap overflow in the X input method client (CVE-2020-14344)

• xorg-x11-server: Leak of uninitialized heap memory from the X server to clients in AllocatePixmap of dix/pixmap.c (CVE-2020-14347)
