X Font Service Detection

Language:

An X font service is listening on the remote host.

The remote service is an X Window Font Service (xfs) daemon, which serves font files to clients.

Limit incoming traffic to this port if desired or disable the service as the use of server-supplied fonts is currently deprecated.
