How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 xorg-x11-server-devel.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xorg-x11-server-devel package and not the xorg-x11-server-devel package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the X Rendering extension's handling of animated cursors. If a client provides no cursors, the server assumes at least one is present, leading to an out-of-bounds read and potential crash.
