   An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:


   This is a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 LTSS roll up update of
   xorg-x11-libXv, fixing security issues and some bugs.

   These issues require connection to a malicious X server to trigger the
   bugs in client libraries.

   Security issues fixed:

       * CVE-2013-1989: Multiple integer overflows in X.org libXv allowed X
         servers to trigger allocation of insufficient memory and a buffer
         overflow via vectors related to the (1) XvQueryPortAttributes, (2)
   XvListImageFormats, and (3) XvCreateImage function.
       * CVE-2013-2066: Buffer overflow in X.org libXv allowed X servers to
         cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary
         code via crafted length or index values to the XvQueryPortAttributes
         function.
