Sean Larsson discovered an integer overflow vulnerability in the build_range() function possibly leading to a heap-based buffer overflow when handling QueryXBitmaps and QueryXExtents protocol requests. Sean Larsson also discovered an error in the swap_char2b() function possibly leading to a heap corruption when handling the same protocol requests. Versions less than 1.0.5 are affected.
