Olivier Fourdan 2015-07-03 11:30:40 UTC Doc Text Connecting via XDMCP to a remote machine of different endianess architecture would under certain circumstances cause a crash of the Xserver because the length of the data within the XkbSetGeometry request would be swapped twice, thus resulting in a wrong value. With this update, the data within the XkbSetGeometry request is swapped only once when necessary, ensuring the correct data length is used. As a result, connecting via XDMCP to a remote machine of different endianess no longer cause a crash of the X server.
Eva Majorsinova 2015-07-10 14:23:17 UTC Doc Text Connecting via XDMCP to a remote machine of different endianess architecture would under certain circumstances cause a crash of the Xserver because the length of the data within the XkbSetGeometry request would be swapped twice, thus resulting in a wrong value. With this update, the data within the XkbSetGeometry request is swapped only once when necessary, ensuring the correct data length is used. As a result, connecting via XDMCP to a remote machine of different endianess no longer cause a crash of the X server. Connecting to a remote machine of different endianness architecture using the X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) could cause unexpected termination of the X server when the data length in the XkbSetGeometry request was erroneously swapped twice, and an incorrect value was produced. With this update, the data is swapped only once when appropriate, ensuring the use of correct data length. Connecting to remote machines no longer causes X server crashes in this situation.
