xorg-x11-server en versiones anteriores a la 1.19.5 no tenía una validación extra de longitud en la función ProcEstablishConnection, lo que permitía que atacantes remotos permitan que el cliente malicioso X provoque que el servidor X se cierre inesperadamente o que, posiblemente, ejecute código arbitrario.
