Title:RHSA-2007:0157: xorg-x11-apps and libX11 security update (Moderate)
Description:X.org is an open source implementation of the X Window System. It provides the basic low-level functionality that full-fledged graphical user interfaces are designed upon.

  • An integer overflow flaw was found in the X.org XGetPixel() function. Improper use of this function could cause an application calling it to function improperly, possibly leading to a crash or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2007-1667)

    Users of the X.org X11 server should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch and are not vulnerable to this issue.
