From b053d215b80e721f9afdc5794e4f3f4f2aee0141 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Coopersmith Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2013 23:36:13 -0700 Subject: integer overflow in XResQueryClients() [CVE-2013-1988 1/2] The CARD32 rep.num_clients needs to be bounds checked before multiplying by sizeof(XResClient) to avoid integer overflow leading to underallocation and writing data from the network past the end of the allocated buffer.
