Xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-xwayland: xorg-x11-server: use-after-free in misyncdestroyfence()

AI Analysis

No AI analysis yet.

Description

A use-after-free flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in miSyncDestroyFence(). A client that sets up multiple fence triggers can trigger a use-after-free function pointer call. An attacker would connect to the X server to set up a fence and await that fence, then a second X connection destroys the fence, causing the use-after-free. This may be used to crash the server, or for privilege escalation if the X server runs as root.
