Xorg-x11-server: xorg-x11-server-xwayland: xorg-x11-server: out-of-bounds heap write in dri2 drigetbuffers/drigetbufferswithformat

Summary

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the X.Org X server and Xwayland in DRIGetBuffers/DRIGetBuffersWithFormat. A client that requests multiple DRI2BufferBackLeft attachments and one DRI2BufferFrontLeft can trigger an out-of-bounds heap write. This may be used to crash the server, or for privilege escalation if the X server runs as root.
