CVE-2025-49179  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-190  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest xorg-server to version 2:21.1.7-3+deb12u10 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xorg-server package and not the xorg-server package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the X Record extension. The RecordSanityCheckRegisterClients function does not check for an integer overflow when computing request length, which allows a client to bypass length checks.
