Descriptions

Integer overflow in the build_range function in X.Org X Font Server (xfs) before 1.0.5 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) QueryXBitmaps and (2) QueryXExtents protocol requests with crafted size values, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Desbordamiento de entero en la función build_range de X.Org X Font Server (xfs) anterior a 1.0.5 permite a atacantes locales o remotos (dependiendo del contexto) ejecutar código de su elección a través de peticiones de protocolo (2) QueryXBitmaps y (2) QueryXExtents con valores de tamaño manipulados, lo cual dispara un desbordamiento de búfer basado en montículo.
