+ <p>It is possible to deduce if a file exists or not by exploiting the
+ way that Xorg creates its lock files. This is caused by the fact
+ that the X server is behaving differently if the lock file already
+ exists as a symbolic link pointing to an existing or non-existing
+ file.</p>
+ <p>It is possible for a non-root user to set the permissions for all
+ users on any file or directory to 444, giving unwanted read access
+ or causing denies of service (by removing execute permission).
+ This is caused by a race between creating the lock file and
+ setting its access modes.</p>
