Subject: [PATCH xserver 1/2] Cursor: Refuse to free the root cursor
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
If a cursor reference count drops to 0, the cursor is freed.
The root cursor however is referenced with a specific global variable,
and when the root cursor is freed, the global variable may still point
to freed memory.
Make sure to prevent the rootCursor from being explicitly freed by a
client.
CVE-2025-26594, ZDI-CAN-25544
This vulnerability was discovered by:
Jan-Niklas Sohn working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative
v2: Explicitly forbid XFreeCursor() on the root cursor (Peter Hutterer
<peter.hutterer@who-t.net>)
v3: Return BadCursor instead of BadValue (Michel Dänzer
<michel@daenzer.net>)
