NVD Description

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

A use-after-free flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in CreateSaverWindow(). A client can trigger a use-after-free read after changing window attributes and forcing the screen saver, leading to information disclosure.
