Description

Integer underflow in the pixman_trapezoid_valid macro in pixman.h in Pixman before 0.32.0, as used in X.Org server and cairo, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a negative bottom value.

Solution(s)

  • oracle-linux-upgrade-pixman
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-pixman-devel

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
