Hi,

This bug has been public since August but I could find a CVE
for it: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1197921

There are two bugs - Xorg can be made to crash and pixman
can trigger the aformentioned Xorg crash. A simplified
reproducer is in the pixman patches with another reproducer
in the Launchpad bug. The xorg

xorg-server - exa: only draw valid trapezoids The patch was 
submitted in October but doesn't seem to be applied yet, so
I'm CC'ing xorg_security. Patch references the pixman f.d.o
bug, but doesn't seem to have an associated xorg bug.

Pixman - Corrupted CustomShape crashes Xorg
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67484 Patch: - 
5e14da97f16e421d084a9e735be21b1025150f0c (fix) -

Thanks!


So only x.org crashes, you can trigger it via X.org, or via
pixman? or is pixman also crashing?



From https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67484 and 
http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/14769/ it sounded like it
would affect both 1) crash an application using pixman 2) crash
the X server

Is that correct?


AIUI, this is correct. See: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1197921/comments/28

 "No, it really is a bug in pixman too. I just fixed the same
comparison that happens in xorg-server, but pixman is still
affected."



Thanks. Please use CVE-2013-6424 for the issue in xorg-server

Please use CVE-2013-6425 for the issue in pixman.
