This update for for X Window System client libraries fixes a class of
privilege escalation issues.

A malicious X server could send specially crated data to X clients, which
allowed for triggering crashes, or privilege escalation if this relationship
was untrusted or crossed user or permission level boundaries.

The following libraries have been fixed:

libXfixes:

- insufficient validation of data from the X server can cause an integer
  overflow on 32 bit architectures (boo#1002995, CVE-2016-7944)

libX11:
 
- plugged a memory leak (boo#1002991, CVE-2016-7942)
- insufficient validation of data from the X server can cause
  out of boundary memory read (XGetImage()) or write (XListFonts())
  (boo#1002991, CVE-2016-7942)

libXi:

- Integer overflows in libXI can cause out of boundary memory access or
  endless loops (Denial of Service) (boo#1002998, CVE-2016-7945).
- Insufficient validation of data in libXI can cause out of boundary memory
  access or endless loops (Denial of Service) (boo#1002998, CVE-2016-7946).
