CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Integer overflow in the FontFileInitTable function in X.Org libXfont before 20070403 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long first line in the fonts.dir file, which results in a heap overflow.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2007-1352 requires adjacent network access, limiting remote exploitation but still posing risk in shared or local network environments.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
