medium Nessus Plugin ID 366713

Synopsis

The remote Slackware Linux host is missing a security update to libXi.

Description

The version of libXi installed on the remote host is prior to 1.8.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2026-289-02 advisory.

 New libXi packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the libXi security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the affected libXi package.
