SSA-2006-123-01 xorg server overflow

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
SSA-2006-123-01 xorg server overflow

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

New xorg and xorg-devel packages are available for Slackware 10.1, 10.2,
and -current to fix a security issue. A typo in the X render extension
in X.Org 6.8.0 or later permits an X client to crash the server and
possibly to execute arbitrary code as the X server user (typically this
is "root".)
