A security issue was identified and fixed in xinetd :

builtins.c in Xinetd before 2.3.15 does not check the service type when the tcpmux-server service is enabled, which exposes all enabled services and allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a request to tcpmux port 1 (CVE-2012-0862).

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
