Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A malicious X server could send malformed  RECORD EnableContext reolies that can cause a X client using the parse_reply_call_callback function in libXtst before 1.2.6 to enter a endless loop.
