Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201404-6 - Multiple vulnerabilities in Mesa could result in execution of arbitrary code or Denial of Service. Versions less than 9.1.4 are affected.
36031cee58d1f9371bb65ef019c1a9362896bfe76486340bbed7f9f618fdb875Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-182 - Updated mesa packages fix multiple vulnerabilities. An out-of-bounds access flaw was found in Mesa. If an application using Mesa exposed the Mesa API to untrusted inputs (Mozilla Firefox does this), an attacker could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. It was found that Mesa did not correctly validate messages from the X server. A malicious X server could cause an application using Mesa to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

It also provides hardware-accelerated drivers for many popular graphics chips. An out-of-bounds access flaw was found in Mesa. If an application using Mesa exposed the Mesa API to untrusted inputs, an attacker could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. It was found that Mesa did not correctly validate messages from the X server. A malicious X server could cause an application using Mesa to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
