NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xorg-x11-server package and not the xorg-x11-server package as distributed by RHEL.

A flaw was found in the X.Org X server. This integer underflow vulnerability, specifically in the XKB compatibility map handling, allows an attacker with local or remote X11 server access to trigger a buffer read overrun. This can lead to memory-safety violations and potentially a denial of service (DoS) or other severe impacts.
