"The version of xorg-x11-server / xorg-x11-server-Xwayland 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-2025-49178 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the X server's request handling. Non-zero 'bytes to ignore' in a client's request can
    cause the server to skip processing another client's request, potentially leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2025-49178)
