Issue Date: 2013-06-03

--

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.
