<p>Matthieu Herrb of X.Org reports:</p>
<blockquote cite="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-June/036026.html">
<p>Several vulnerabilities have been found in the server-side code
of some extensions in the X Window System. Improper validation of
client-provided data can cause data corruption.</p>
<p>Exploiting these overflows will crash the X server or,
under certain circumstances allow the execution of arbitray machine
code.</p>
<p>When the X server is running with root privileges (which is the case
for the Xorg server and for most kdrive based servers), these
vulnerabilities can thus also be used to raise privileges.</p>
<p>All these vulnerabilities, to be exploited successfully, require either
an already established connection to a running X server (and normally
running X servers are only accepting authenticated connections), or a
shell access with a valid user on the machine where the vulnerable
server is installed.</p>
