EulerOS 2.0 SP11 : xorg-x11-server (EulerOS-SA-2023-2673)

high Nessus Plugin ID 188203

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the xorg-x11-server package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A flaw was found in X.Org Server Overlay Window. A Use-After-Free may lead to local privilege escalation.
 If a client explicitly destroys the compositor overlay window (aka COW), the Xserver would leave a dangling pointer to that window in the CompScreen structure, which will trigger a use-after-free later.
 (CVE-2023-1393)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected xorg-x11-server packages.
