https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-3138
16 Jun 2023 — A vulnerability was found in libX11. The security flaw occurs because the functions in src/InitExt.c in libX11 do not check that the values provided for the Request, Event, or Error IDs are within the bounds of the arrays that those functions write to, using those IDs as array indexes. They trust that they were called with values provided by an Xserver adhering to the bounds specified in the X11 protocol, as all X servers provided by X.Org do. As the protocol only specifies a single byte for these values, a... • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2023-3138 • CWE-119: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •

CVE-2023-1393 – X.Org Server Overlay Window Use-After-Free Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-1393
30 Mar 2023 — A flaw was found in X.Org Server Overlay Window. A Use-After-Free may lead to local privilege escalation. If a client explicitly destroys the compositor overlay window (aka COW), the Xserver would leave a dangling pointer to that window in the CompScreen structure, which will trigger a use-after-free later.

CVE-2023-0494 – X.Org Server DeepCopyPointerClasses Use-After-Free Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-0494
07 Feb 2023 — A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This issue occurs due to a dangling pointer in DeepCopyPointerClasses that can be exploited by ProcXkbSetDeviceInfo() and ProcXkbGetDeviceInfo() to read and write into freed memory. This can lead to local privilege elevation on systems where the X server runs privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the abilit... • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2165995 • CWE-416: Use After Free •

CVE-2022-46285 – libXpm: Infinite loop on unclosed comments
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-46285
18 Jan 2023 — A flaw was found in libXpm. This issue occurs when parsing a file with a comment not closed; the end-of-file condition will not be detected, leading to an infinite loop and resulting in a Denial of Service in the application linked to the library. Martin Ettl discovered that libXpm incorrectly handled certain XPM files. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted XPM file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libXpm to stop responding, resulting in a denia... • https://packetstorm.news/files/id/170620 • CWE-835: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop') •

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-4883
18 Jan 2023 — A flaw was found in libXpm. When processing files with .Z or .gz extensions, the library calls external programs to compress and uncompress files, relying on the PATH environment variable to find these programs, which could allow a malicious user to execute other programs by manipulating the PATH environment variable.
