Description
A flaw was found in libXi. An out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the XQueryDeviceState() function allows a malicious X server to trigger an application crash. By returning a specially crafted response to a device state query, the server causes the client application to read memory beyond allocated buffer boundaries, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
