Changes:
 xfs (1:1.0.1-7) stable-security; urgency=high  .

  • Security upload.
  • Fix several vulnerabilities (CVE-2007-4568): The QueryXBitmaps and QueryXExtents protocol requests suffer from lack of validation of their 'length' parameters. Maliciously crafted requests can either cause two different problems with both requests: + An integer overflow in the computation of the size of a dynamic buffer can lead to a heap overflow in the build_range() function. + An arbitrary number of bytes on the heap can be swapped by the swap_char2b() function.
  • See upstream security advisory: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-announce/2007-October/000416.html Files: 6090b1b5d0c40f41cf8466d4be26c86c 794 x11 optional xfs_1.0.1-7.dsc 47090deff75f0478f865e79b88e22ce6 29837 x11 optional xfs_1.0.1-7.diff.gz 3d4296688c5a823219dc42f8de0a2675 57298 x11 optional xfs_1.0.1-7_i386.deb
