Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.22
Severity: important
Tags: security patch
Back in may CVE-2006-1526 was reported [1] and fixed [2]. I looked at my
current testing output:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg$ Xorg -version
X Window System Version 7.0.0
Release Date: 21 December 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.0
Build Operating System:Linux 2.6.16-1-vserver-amd64-k8 x86_64
Current Operating System: Linux remaxp 2.6.14.6-grsec-cz02 #1 Sun Jun 18 09:35:5
4 CEST 2006 x86_64
Build Date: 16 March 2006
Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.
Module Loader present
and see that my server was build *before* the date of the report. Since I did
not see a bug report [3] on this nor did I find anything in
/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg, I report this here to track this for Etch.
Possibly a fix can be taken from the Ubuntu USN[4].
I am not sure about the severity, please coordinate if an update Etch
security is necessary.
Furthermore I did not see an DSA for Sarge[5], if Sarge is not vulnerable
then please remember to update the appropriate list[6] accordingly.
