  • CVE-2026-93517: A heap buffer overflow in handling GLX RenderLarge request where dataBytes exceeds cmdlen in X.org X server before 21.1.25 and XWayland before 24.1.14 that could be be triggered by an authenticated X client could cause crashes or code execution in X server context.
  • CVE-2026-93518: An integer truncation issue in XkbResizeKeyType() that could lead to a heap buffer overflow by authenticated X clients in X.org X server before 21.1.25 and XWayland before 24.1.14 could be exploited for crashes or potential code execution in the X server.
  • CVE-2026-93519: A buffer overflow when handling pointer barriers in the XFIXES extension in X.Org X server before 21.1.25 and XWayland before 24.1.14 could be used by authenticated X clients to crash or potentially execute code in X server context.

  • CVE-2026-93521: A buffer overflow in RandR ChangeProviderProperty requests in X.Org X Server before 2.1.25 and XWayland before 24.4.14 could be used by authenticated X clients to crash or execute code within the X server context.
  • CVE-2026-93523: A heap buffer overflow caused by a XIPassiveUngrabDevice request with an out-of-range modifier value in X.Org X Server before 21.1.15 and XWayland before 24.1.14 could be used by authenticated X clients to crash or potentially execute code in X server context.
  • CVE-2026-93524: A buffer overread in CheckKeySyms() in X.Org X Server before 21.1.25 and XWayland before 24.1.14 could be used by authenticated X clients to leak small amounts of information from X server memory or potentially crash the X server.
  • CVE-2026-93536: A use after free caused by missing lifecycle management of gesture sprites in GestureBuildSprite() in X.Org X Server before 21.1.25 and XWayland before 24.1.14 could be used by authenticated X clients to crash the X server or potentially execute code.
1 issue left for the package maintainer to handle:
  • CVE-2023-5574: (postponed; to be fixed through a stable update) A use-after-free flaw was found in xorg-x11-server-Xvfb. This issue occurs in Xvfb with a very specific and legacy configuration (a multi-screen setup with multiple protocol screens, also known as Zaphod mode). If the pointer is warped from a screen 1 to a screen 0, a use-after-free issue may be triggered during shutdown or reset of the Xvfb server, allowing for possible escalation of privileges or denial of service.

You can find information about how to handle this issue in the security team's documentation.
