| Description: | Summary: Check the version of xorg-x11-server-common Vulnerability Insight: X.Org is an open source implementation of the X Window System.

(CVE-2015-0255) This issue was discovered by Olivier Fourdan of Red Hat. All xorg-x11-server users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
