Часто задаваемые вопросы

What is CVE-2026-88807?

It is a heap overflow leading to code injection (CWE-122) in libXrender's RenderQueryPictFormats function, rated CVSS 8.9 and fixed in the AlmaLinux 8 update ALSA-2026:91267.

Who is affected?

Systems running X11 applications that connect to an X server — the client library parses the server's responses, so a malicious or compromised X server is the attack source. Headless hosting servers without X installed are not exposed.

How do I apply the fix?

Run dnf update libXrender and restart graphical applications. On headless servers where the library exists but nothing uses X, either update it or remove it to eliminate the surface.

Why do libX flaws keep appearing alongside each other?

The X11 client libraries share protocol-parsing code and maintenance, so security batches often land the same week — this libXrender fix arrived with the libXtst update (ALSA-2026:91294) in the same window.
