+               <desc>Some vulnerabilities have been reported in the X.Org X11 
X Font Server (XFS), which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain 
escalated privileges.
+                       1) An integer overflow exists within the handlers for 
the X protocol requests "QueryXBitmaps" and "QueryXExtents", which do not 
correctly check the "length" parameters before passing them to the 
"build_range()" function. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer 
overflow by sending specially crafted "QueryXBitmaps" and "QueryXExtents" 
requests to a vulnerable service.
+                       2) An error exists within the handler for the X 
protocol requests "QueryXBitmaps" and "QueryXExtents" when calling the 
"swap_char2b()" function, which can be exploited to swap an arbitrary number of 
bytes on the heap, resulting in a heap corruption.</desc>
