Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the handling of animated cursors by the X Rendering extension when a client provides no cursors, causing the server to assume at least one is present and resulting in an out-of-bounds read. An attacker can cause a crash by sending a specially crafted request that triggers this condition.
