It looks like nx-libs is affected.
It also looks like some distros (Fedora, Debian) have fixed it, while others (RHEL 5, 6 and 7, Debian LTS) have not.
It also looks like the X.org 1.16.x commits are easier to apply to nx-libs than the X.org 1.17.x commits are. The 1.17.x commits are linked to on that advisory page.
The X.org 1.16.x commits are here: the branch: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/log/?h=server-1.16-branch the prereq: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.16-branch&id=747cea16c4de1f48e838e1388301a2e24a3da6c4 the fix itself: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.16-branch&id=8f61533b16635a0a13f4048235246edb138fa40b
-Mike#2 Status Update:
I managed to backport the prereq commit to nx-libs 3.6.x. http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=commit;h=a1cd16d6d05b197fff110d2...
LGTM, thanks!
Mihai
Please directly apply the patch on top of the 3.6.x code and push to
3.6.x branches (Arctica/X2Go nx-libs repo).
I will backport the patch to the 3.5.0.x branch for X2Go (and Arctica)
(or you may do it yourself: Please use the Git commit from the 3.6.x
branch in debian/patches/ for this). Similar to how I backported the
other 40 patches you provided.
Thanks+Greets, Mike
