+Subject: [PATCH 20/40] dix: integer overflow in GetHosts() [CVE-2014-8092 2/4]
+
+GetHosts() iterates over all the hosts it has in memory, and copies
+them to a buffer. The buffer length is calculated by iterating over
+all the hosts and adding up all of their combined length. There is a
+potential integer overflow, if there are lots and lots of hosts (with
+a combined length of > ~4 gig). This should be possible by repeatedly
+calling ProcChangeHosts() on 64bit machines with enough memory.
+
+This patch caps the list at 1mb, because multi-megabyte hostname
+lists for X access control are insane.
+
+v2: backport to nx-libs 3.6.x (Mike DePaulo)
