- CVEs with nessus.description==Chris Gilbert discovered a buffer overflow in the XPM library shipped with XFree86. If an attacker tricked a user into loading a malicious XPM image with an application that uses libxpm, he could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user opening the image.
These overflows do not allow privilege escalation through the X server; the overflows are in a client-side library.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
