Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered several vulnerabilities in the Xorg X server, which may result in privilege escalation if the X server is running privileged.


For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 2:1.20.11-1+deb11u15.

We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
