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 SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was identified in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension where improper bounds checking in the XkbSetCompatMap() function can cause an unsigned short overflow. If an attacker sends specially crafted input data, the value calculation may overflow, leading to memory corruption or a crash.
