Synopsis:	Moderate: xorg-x11 security update
Issue date:	2007-09-19
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-4730

A flaw was found in the way X.Org's composite extension handles 32 bit
color depth windows while running in 16 bit color depth mode. If an X.org
server has enabled the composite extension, it may be possible for a
malicious authorized client to cause a denial of service (crash) or
potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the X.org server.
(CVE-2007-4730)

Please note this flaw can only be triggered when using a compositing window
manager. Scientific Linux 4 does not ship with a compositing window
manager.
