Hi Guys,

We had get some reports that AIX X-server has this vulnerability in
"font.alias" file parsing privilege. It stated from the article that there
is a potential exploitation of a buffer overflow in the X-server.

Would the IBM really acknowledge this report?

Any comments/suggestions is really appreciated.

Thanks,
