    Package : xorg-server
    CVE ID : CVE-2021-3472

    Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that missing input sanitising in the XInput extension of the X.org X server may result in privilege escalation if
    the X server is running privileged.

    For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.

    For the detailed security status of xorg-server please refer to its
    security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/xorg-server
