Discussion

X.Org libXt CVE-2013-2005 Multiple Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities

The 'libXt' library is prone to multiple memory-corruption vulnerabilities because it fails to adequately bounds-check user-supplied data.

Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the user running the X client. Failed exploit attempts will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.

Versions prior to libXt 1.1.4 are vulnerable.
