Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2013-06-15 20:55 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:52
Severity
Summary
The (1) GetDatabase and (2) _XimParseStringFile functions in X.org libX11 1.5.99.901 (1.6 RC1) and earlier do not restrict the recursion depth when processing directives to include files, which allows X servers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption) via a crafted file.
