NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tigervnc-server-minimal package and not the tigervnc-server-minimal package as distributed by Centos.

A flaw was found in the X.Org server. The cursor code in both Xephyr and Xwayland uses the wrong type of private at creation. It uses the cursor bits type with the cursor as private, and when initiating the cursor, that overwrites the XSELINUX context.
