Title:RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2005:396
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory RHSA-2005:396.

X.org is an open source implementation of the X Window System. It
provides the basic low-level functionality that full-fledged graphical
user interfaces (GUIs) such as GNOME and KDE are designed upon.

specially crafted pixmap image. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-2495 to this issue.

Users of X.org should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch and are not vulnerable to this issue.
