Descriptions

Integer overflow in the AllocateGlyph function in the Render extension in the X server 1.4 in X.Org X11R7.3 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified request fields that are used to calculate a heap buffer size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Desboramiento de entero en la función AllocateGlyph de la extensión Render del servidor X-window 1.4 en X.org X11R7.3 permite a atacantes, dependiendo del contexto, ejecutar código arbitrario a través de campos de solicitud no especificados, que son usados para calcular el tamaño del montículo del buffer, que dispara un desbordamiento de buffer basado en montículo.
