Package        : xorg-server
CVE ID         : CVE-2023-1393

Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that a user-after-free flaw in the Composite
extension of the X.org X server may result in privilege escalation if
the X server is running under the root user.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:1.20.11-1+deb11u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.
