OpenSUSE Leap 15.3: 2021-091-02 High: LibAudio Buffer Overflow
slackware
October 18, 2017
New libXres packages are available for Slackware 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix a security issue
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog: patches/packages/libXres-1.2.0-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded. Integer overflows may allow X servers to trigger allocation of insufficient memory and a buffer overflow via vectors related to the (1) XResQueryClients and (2) XResQueryClientResources functions. For more information, see: https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2013-1988 (* Security fix *)
