Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions X.Org X server (affected versions not specified) Xwayland (affected versions not specified)
Description An out-of-bounds read flaw exists in the glXDisp ChangeDrawableAttributes() function. Due to an incorrect size validation check, the system may read a client-controlled number of bytes that exceed the request buffer, resulting in information disclosure. Additionally, a write path is present, although it requires byte-swapped clients, a feature that is disabled by default.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
