""" 1) CVE-2023-43785 libX11: out-of-bounds memory access in _XkbReadKeySyms() Introduced in: X11R6.1 [released March 1996] Fixed in: libX11 1.8.7 Found by: Gregory James DUCK Fixed by: Alan Coopersmith of Oracle Solaris Engineering When libX11 is processing the reply from the X server to the XkbGetMap request, if it detected the number of symbols in the new map was less than the size of the buffer it had allocated, it always added room for 128 more symbols, instead of the actual size needed. While the _XkbReadBufferCopyKeySyms() helper function returned an error if asked to copy more keysyms into the buffer than there was space allocated for, the caller never checked for an error and assumed the full set of keysyms was copied into the buffer and could then try to read out of bounds when accessing the buffer. libX11 1.8.7 has been patched to both fix the size allocated and check for error returns from _XkbReadBufferCopyKeySyms().

2) CVE-2023-43786 libX11: stack exhaustion from infinite recursion in PutSubImage() Introduced in: X11R2 [released Feb. 1988] Fixed in: libX11 1.8.7 Found by: Yair Mizrahi of the JFrog Vulnerability Research team Fixed by: Alan Coopersmith of Oracle Solaris Engineering When splitting a single line of pixels into chunks that fit in a single request (not using the BIG-REQUESTS extension) to send to the X server, the code did not take into account the number of bits per pixel, so would just loop forever finding it needed to send more pixels than fit in the given request size and not breaking them down into a small enough chunk to fit. An XPM file was provided that triggered this bug when loaded via libXpm's XpmReadFileToPixmap() function, which in turn calls XPutImage() and hit this bug. Further hardening to prevent similar bugs was done in libX11 by making XPutImage() clip images to the maximum X protocol pixmap size (limited by the use of unsigned 16-bit integers for height & width) when writing to X pixmaps, and by making XCreatePixmap() generate X errors if a height or width was specified that did not fit into an unsigned 16-bit integer. In libXpm, hardening was done to return error codes for any call that would have passed out-of-bounds width or height values to XCreatePixmap().

An XPM file was provided that triggered this bug when loaded via libXpm's XpmReadFileToPixmap() function, which in turn calls XCreateImage() and hit this bug. Further hardening to prevent similar bugs was done in libXpm to return error codes for any call to XCreateImage() that would have resulted in this calculation overflowing.
