This update fixes two security issues:
A user authenticated to an X Session could crash or execute code in the
context of the X Server by exploiting a stack overflow in the endianness
conversion of X Events.
Uninitialized data in endianness conversion in the XEvent handling of the
X.Org X Server allowed authenticated malicious users to access potentially
privileged data from the X server.
