Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Debian reports :

xtrlock did not block multitouch events so an attacker could still input and thus control various programs such as Chromium, etc. via so-called 'multitouch' events including pan scrolling, 'pinch and zoom' or even being able to provide regular mouse clicks by depressing the touchpad once and then clicking with a secondary finger.

Solution

Update the affected package.
