+ <synopsis>
+ X.org, libX11, xdm, xf86dga, xinit, xload, xtrans, and xterm are vulnerable

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Several X.org libraries and X.org itself contain system calls to
+ set*uid() functions, without checking their result.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ Local users could deliberately exceed their assigned resource limits
+ and elevate their privileges after an unsuccessful set*uid() system
+ call. This requires resource limits to be enabled on the machine.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
