Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-894
2005-09-16
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : xorg-x11
Version : 6.8.2
Release : 37.FC4.48.1
Summary : The basic fonts, programs and docs for an X workstation.
Description :
X.org X11 is an open source implementation of the X Window System. It
provides the basic low level functionality which full fledged
graphical user interfaces (GUIs) such as GNOME and KDE are designed
upon.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated xorg-x11 packages that fix several integer overflows,
various bugs, are now available for Fedora Core 4.

X.Org X11 is an implementation of the X Window System,
which provides the core functionality for the Linux
graphical desktop.

Several integer overflow bugs were found in the way X.Org
X11 code parses pixmap images. It is possible for a user
to gain elevated privileges by loading a specially crafted
pixmap image. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2495
to this issue.

Additionally, this update contains:

- Support for some newer models of Intel i945 video
chipsets.

- A fix for a regression caused in the last Xorg update
for Fedora Core 4, which resulted in some Matrox
hardware to fail to initialize properly, which was
introduced in the PCI config space access bugfix from
the previous xorg-x11 update. The PCI config code
has been updated now to handle BIOS related quirks
of this nature, so this fix may also benefit users of
some other brands of video hardware as well.

- A fix for a memory leak in the X server's shadow
framebuffer code.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Tue Sep 13 2005 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com> 6.8.2-37.FC4.48.1
- Actually make sure xorg-x11-6.8.2-add-i945-support.patch gets applied to
the build, as it was added before to CVS but not being used.
- Build failed because 6.8.2-37.FC4.48 somehow exists already, even though
it is not based on 6.8.2-48. Bump to 6.8.2-37.FC4.48.1 and try again.

* Tue Sep 13 2005 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com> 6.8.2-37.FC4.45.1
- Build 6.8.2-37.FC4.45.1 for security and bugfix update for FC4.

* Tue Sep 13 2005 Soren Sandmann <sandmann@redhat.com>
- Update linux-native-pciscan patch to not spew debug info.

* Tue Sep 13 2005 Soren Sandmann <sandmann@redhat.com>
- Update linux-native-pciscan patch to correctly handle byte accesses
to PCI space
- Plug leak in shadow framebuffer (-shadow-framebuffer-leak.patch).

* Tue Sep 13 2005 Soren Sandmann <sandmann@redhat.com>
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-security-CAN-2005-2495.patch

* Mon Sep 5 2005 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com>
- Updated post/postun scripts for libs to use -p /sbin/ldconfig instead,
which allows rpm to optimize/reduce package installation time

* Thu Sep 1 2005 Mike A. Harris <mharris@redhat.com>
- Added following patches, merged over from RHEL-4 branch of CVS:
- Added xorg-x11-6.8.1-ati-radeon-RV100-bus-master-fix.patch for bug (#165179)
- Added xorg-x11-6.8.2-add-i945-support.patch to fix (#156964)
