This code is commonly + called from the X server when an X Font Server is active in the + font path, so may be running in a setuid-root process depending + on the X server in use. Exploits of this path could be used by + a local, authenticated user to attempt to raise privileges; or + by a remote attacker who can control the font server to attempt + to execute code with the privileges of the X server.</p> + </blockquote> + </body> + </description> + <references> + <cvename>CVE-2014-0209</cvename> + <cvename>CVE-2014-0210</cvename> + <cvename>CVE-2014-0211</cvename> + <url>http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2014-May/002431.html</url> + </references> + <dates> + <discovery>2014-05-13</discovery> + <entry>2014-05-13</entry> + </dates> + </vuln> + <vuln vid="e7bb3885-da40-11e3-9ecb-2c4138874f7d"> <topic>libxml2 -- lack of end-of-document check DoS</topic> <affects> |
