https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26599
25 Feb 2025 — An access to an uninitialized pointer flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. The function compCheckRedirect() may fail if it cannot allocate the backing pixmap. In that case, compRedirectWindow() will return a BadAlloc error without validating the window tree marked just before, which leaves the validated data partly initialized and the use of an uninitialized pointer later. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obta... • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-26599 • CWE-824: Access of Uninitialized Pointer •

CVE-2025-26598 – Xorg: xwayland: out-of-bounds write in createpointerbarrierclient()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26598
25 Feb 2025 — An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. The function GetBarrierDevice() searches for the pointer device based on its device ID and returns the matching value, or supposedly NULL, if no match was found. However, the code will return the last element of the list if no matching device ID is found, which can lead to out-of-bounds memory access. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the abilit... • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-26598 • CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •

CVE-2025-26597 – Xorg: xwayland: buffer overflow in xkbchangetypesofkey()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26597
25 Feb 2025 — A buffer overflow flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. If XkbChangeTypesOfKey() is called with a 0 group, it will resize the key symbols table to 0 but leave the key actions unchanged. If the same function is later called with a non-zero value of groups, this will cause a buffer overflow because the key actions are of the wrong size. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged... • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-26597 • CWE-119: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer CWE-122: Heap-based Buffer Overflow •

CVE-2025-26596 – Xorg: xwayland: heap overflow in xkbwritekeysyms()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26596
25 Feb 2025 — A heap overflow flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. The computation of the length in XkbSizeKeySyms() differs from what is written in XkbWriteKeySyms(), which may lead to a heap-based buffer overflow. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the XkbSizeKeySyms function.

CVE-2025-26595 – Xorg: xwayland: buffer overflow in xkbvmodmasktext()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26595
25 Feb 2025 — A buffer overflow flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. The code in XkbVModMaskText() allocates a fixed-sized buffer on the stack and copies the names of the virtual modifiers to that buffer. The code fails to check the bounds of the buffer and would copy the data regardless of the size. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server.

CVE-2025-26594 – X.org: xwayland: use-after-free of the root cursor
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-26594
25 Feb 2025 — A use-after-free flaw was found in X.Org and Xwayland. The root cursor is referenced in the X server as a global variable. If a client frees the root cursor, the internal reference points to freed memory and causes a use-after-free. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the h... • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-26594 • CWE-416: Use After Free •

CVE-2024-45780 – Grub2: fs/tar: integer overflow causes heap oob write
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-45780
19 Feb 2025 — A flaw was found in grub2. When reading tar files, grub2 allocates an internal buffer for the file name. However, it fails to properly verify the allocation against possible integer overflows. It's possible to cause the allocation length to overflow with a crafted tar file, leading to a heap out-of-bounds write. This flaw eventually allows an attacker to circumvent secure boot protections. • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-45780 • CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •

CVE-2024-45782 – Grub2: fs/hfs: strcpy() using the volume name (fs/hfs.c:382)
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-45782
19 Feb 2025 — A flaw was found in the HFS filesystem. When reading an HFS volume's name at grub_fs_mount(), the HFS filesystem driver performs a strcpy() using the user-provided volume name as input without properly validating the volume name's length. This issue may read to a heap-based out-of-bounds writer, impacting grub's sensitive data integrity and eventually leading to a secure boot protection bypass. This update for grub2 fixes the following issues. Fixed strcpy overflow in ufs. • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-45782 • CWE-120: Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input ('Classic Buffer Overflow') CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •

19 Feb 2025 — A stack overflow flaw was found when reading a BFS file system. A crafted BFS filesystem may lead to an uncontrolled loop, causing grub2 to crash. This update for grub2 fixes the following issues. Fixed strcpy overflow in ufs. Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in hfs. • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-45778 • CWE-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound •

CVE-2024-45779 – Grub2: fs/bfs: integer overflow leads to heap oob read in the bfs parser
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-45779
19 Feb 2025 — An integer overflow flaw was found in the BFS file system driver in grub2. When reading a file with an indirect extent map, grub2 fails to validate the number of extent entries to be read. A crafted or corrupted BFS filesystem may cause an integer overflow during the file reading, leading to a heap of bounds read. As a consequence, sensitive data may be leaked, or grub2 will crash. This update for grub2 fixes the following issues. • https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-45779 • CWE-125: Out-of-bounds Read CWE-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound •
