The version of xorg-x11-server installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-0229 advisory.

  • An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the X.Org server. This issue can be triggered when a device frozen by a sync grab is reattached to a different master device. This issue May lead to an application crash, local privilege escalation (if the server runs with extended privileges), or remote code execution in SSH X11 forwarding environments. (CVE-2024-0229)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
