NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xorg-x11-server-sdk package and not the xorg-x11-server-sdk package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:5 relevant fixed versions and status.

The ProcRenderAddGlyphs function in the Render extension (render/render.c) in X.Org xserver 1.7.7 and earlier allows local users to read arbitrary memory and possibly cause a denial of service (server crash) via unspecified vectors related to an "input sanitization flaw."
