The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2020-5408 advisory.

  • xorg-x11-server: Out-of-bounds access in XkbSetMap function (CVE-2020-14360)

  • xorg-x11-server: XkbSetDeviceInfo heap-based buffer overflow privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2020-25712)

  • A flaw was found in the way xserver memory was not properly initialized. This could leak parts of server memory to the X client. In cases where Xorg server runs with elevated privileges, this could result in possible ASLR bypass. Xorg-server before version 1.20.9 is vulnerable. (CVE-2020-14347)

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