Synopsis: Important: mesa security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2013:0897-1
Issue Date: 2013-06-03
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-1872
 CVE-2013-1993
--

An out-of-bounds access flaw was found in Mesa. If an application using
Mesa exposed the Mesa API to untrusted inputs (Mozilla Firefox does this),
an attacker could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
(CVE-2013-1872)

It was found that Mesa did not correctly validate messages from the X
server. A malicious X server could cause an application using Mesa to
crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
user running the application. (CVE-2013-1993)

All running applications linked against Mesa must be restarted for this
update to take effect.
