- CVEs with nessus.description==A flaw was found in the way the X.org X11 server registered new hot plugged devices. If a local user switched to a different session and plugged in a new device, input from that device could become available in the previous session, possibly leading to information disclosure.
(CVE-2013-1940)
This update also fixes the following bugs :
- A previous upstream patch modified the Xephyr X server to be resizeable, however, it did not enable the resize functionality by default. As a consequence, X sandboxes were not resizeable on Scientific Linux 6.4 and later.
This update enables the resize functionality by default so that X sandboxes can now be resized as expected.
- In Scientific Linux 6, the X Security extension (XC-SECURITY) has been disabled and replaced by X Access Control Extension (XACE). However, XACE does not yet include functionality that was previously available in XC- SECURITY. With this update, XC-SECURITY is enabled in the xorg-x11-server spec file on Scientific Linux 6.
- Upstream code changes to extension initialization accidentally disabled the GLX extension in Xvfb (the X virtual frame buffer), rendering headless 3D applications not functional. An upstream patch to this problem has been backported so the GLX extension is enabled again, and applications relying on this extension work as expected.
