X.Org security advisory: July 31, 2020 X Server Pixel Data Uninitialized Memory Information Disclosure =============================================================== CVE-2020-14347 Allocation for pixmap data in AllocatePixmap() does not initialize the memory in xserver, it leads to leak uninitialize heap memory to clients. When the X server runs with elevated privileges. This flaw can lead to ASLR bypass, which when combined with other flaws (known/unknown) could lead to lead to privilege elevation in the client.
