An Introduction to the X Window System Introduction to X's Anatomy
An Introduction to the X Window System Robert Lupton This is a limited and partisan introduction to ‘The X Window System’, which is widely but improperly known as X-windows, specifically to version 11 (‘X11’). The intention of the X-project has been to provide ‘tools not rules’, which allows their basic system to appear in a very large number of confusing guises. This document assumes that you are using the configuration that I set up at Peyton Hall † There are helpful manual entries under X and Xserver, as well as for individual utilities such as xterm. You may need to add /usr/princeton/X11/man to your MANPATH to read the X manpages. This is the first draft of this document, so I’d be very grateful for any comments or criticisms. Introduction to X’s Anatomy X consists of three parts: The server The part that knows about the hardware and how to draw lines and write characters. The Clients Such things as terminal emulators, dvi previewers, and clocks and The Window Manager A programme which handles negotiations between the different clients as they fight for screen space, colours, and sunlight. Another fundamental X-concept is that of resources, which is how X describes any- thing that a client might want to specify; common examples would be fonts, colours (both foreground and background), and position on the screen. Keys X can, and usually does, use a number of special keys. You are familiar with the way that <shift>a and <ctrl>a are different from a; in X this sensitivity extends to things like mouse buttons that you might not normally think of as case-sensitive.

Zero-Day Vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) Used in the Wild | Securelist
4/14/2021 Zero-day vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) used in the wild | Securelist Zero-day vulnerability in Desktop Window Manager (CVE-2021-28310) used in the wild securelist.com/zero-day-vulnerability-in-desktop-window-manager-cve-2021-28310-used-in-the-wild/101898 While analyzing the CVE-2021-1732 exploit originally discovered by the DBAPPSecurity Threat Intelligence Center and used by the BITTER APT group, we discovered another zero-day exploit we believe is linked to the same actor. We reported this new exploit to Microsoft in February and after confirmation that it is indeed a zero-day, it received the designation CVE-2021-28310. Microsoft released a patch to this vulnerability as a part of its April security updates. We believe this exploit is used in the wild, potentially by several threat actors. It is an escalation of privilege (EoP) exploit that is likely used together with other browser exploits to escape sandboxes or get system privileges for further access. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to capture a full chain, so we don’t know if the exploit is used with another browser zero-day, or coupled with known, patched vulnerabilities. The exploit was initially identified by our advanced exploit prevention technology and related detection records. In fact, over the past few years, we have built a multitude of exploit protection technologies into our products that have detected several zero-days, proving their effectiveness time and again. We will continue to improve defenses for our users by enhancing technologies and working with third-party vendors to patch vulnerabilities, making the internet more secure for everyone.

A Successor to the X Window System
Y: A Successor to the X Window System Mark Thomas <[email protected]> Project Supervisor: D. Rückert <[email protected]> Second Marker: E. Lupu <[email protected]> June 18, 2003 ii Abstract UNIX desktop environments are a mess. The proliferation of incompatible and inconsistent user interface toolkits is now the primary factor in the failure of enterprises to adopt UNIX as a desktop solution. This report documents the creation of a comprehensive, elegant framework for a complete windowing system, including a standardised graphical user interface toolkit. ‘Y’ addresses many of the problems associated with current systems, whilst keeping and improving on their best features. An initial implementation, which supports simple applications like a terminal emulator, a clock and a calculator, is provided. iii iv Acknowledgements Thanks to Daniel Rückert for supervising the project and for his help and advice regarding it. Thanks to David McBride for his assistance with setting up my project machine and providing me with an ATI Radeon for it. Thanks to Philip Willoughby for his knowledge of the POSIX standard and help with the GNU Autotools and some of the more obscure libc functions. Thanks to Andrew Suffield for his help with the GNU Autotools and Arch. Thanks to Nick Maynard and Karl O’Keeffe for discussions on window system and GUI design. Thanks to Tim Southerwood for discussions about possible features of Y. Thanks to Duncan White for discussions about the virtues of X.

Arwin - a Desktop Augmented Reality Window Manager
ARWin - A Desktop Augmented Reality Window Manager Stephen DiVerdi, Daniel Nurmi, Tobias Hollerer¨ Department of Computer Science University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 sdiverdi,nurmi,holl ¡ @cs.ucsb.edu ing concepts from Windows on the World [2], to integrate legacy 2D applications in the augmented environment, as well as the Tiles system [3], to provide a tangible inter- face to our augmented components. The result is a novel generic application architecture for general purpose com- puting. While AR lends itself very well to multi-user col- laborative work [1, 7], our scenario purposefully focuses on support of the single-user case, which is how most computer users spend the majority of their time. Our prototype environment, ARWIN, allows the user to work in a familiar fashion with traditional 2D GUI appli- cations, while introducing novel applications that are de- veloped specifically with the 3D augmented workspaces in mind. These applications can mimic or extend traditional desktop objects such as a clock or calendar, or can spa- tially visualize information, such as web or file hierarchies. Figure 1. A typical ARWin desktop, as seen through a video see- Thanks to the extra dimension in a volumetric workspace, through head-worn display (Sony LDI-A55 with Point Grey Fire- these applications can also interact in more intuitive ways, fly camera). Applications are (clockwise from right) weather re- port, tagged phone, business card, flowers, web browser, clock. based on physical relationships such as proximity. The re- sult of our work is the core ARWin architecture and the ap- plications we developed to showcase its capabilities.
