Tobias Stoeckmann from the OpenBSD project discovered the following
vulnerability in libXtst, the X Record extension:

Insufficient validation of data from the X server
can cause out of boundary memory access or
endless loops (Denial of Service).

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version
2:1.2.1-1+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libxtst packages.
