For the past year, I've been looking at the implementation of X.org code. both client and server. During this presentation, I'll give an overview of the good, the bad and the ugly.
Since late 2012 I've been looking for security bugs in X.org code. Both Server and Client code. In this talk I will give an architectural overview of all the discovered attack surfaces which would include:
- client network protocol parser
- server network protocol parser
- data passed on from Server to extensions
- Shared memory
- parsers
- ACL's
- ...
I will also discuss security issues found therein. I will also discuss interaction with various developers and how that process went.
