the basic low-level functionality that full-fledged graphical user
interfaces are designed upon.
iDefense reported an integer overflow flaw in the X.org XC-MISC

a denial of service (crash) or potentially execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the X.org server. (CVE-2007-1003)
iDefense reported two integer overflows in the way X.org handled various
font files. A malicious local user could exploit these issues to
potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the X.org server.
(CVE-2007-1351, CVE-2007-1352)
An integer overflow flaw was found in the X.org XGetPixel() function.
