Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libX11 on Caldera Open UNIX 8.0.0 libX11 on UnixWare 7.1.1

Recommendations For libX11 on Caldera Open UNIX 8.0.0, consider restricting access to the dtterm and xterm programs until a fix is available. For libX11 on UnixWare 7.1.1, avoid using the -xrm argument in dtterm and xterm to minimize the risk of exploitation.
