Description:


   xorg-x11-server was updated to fix the following security
   issue:

   * Fixed a security issue in which an authenticated X
   client can cause an X server to use memory after it was
   freed, potentially leading to crash and/or memory
   corruption. (CVE-2013-4396, bnc#843652)

   A non-security issues was also fixed:

   * rfbAuthReenable is accessing rfbClient structure that
   was in most cases already freed. It actually needs only
   ScreenPtr, so pass it directly. (bnc#816813)

   Security Issues:

   * CVE-2013-4396
