Title:RHSA-2007:0519: xorg-x11 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.

A temporary file flaw was found in the way the X.Org X11 xfs font server startup script executes. A local user could modify the permissions of the file of their choosing, possibly elevating their local privileges (CVE-2007-3103).

Users of X.org should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch and are not vulnerable to these issues.
