The remote host is missing an update to xli
announced via advisory DSA 859-1.

Ariel Berkman discovered several buffer overflows in xloadimage, which
are also present in xli, a command line utility for viewing images in
X11, and could be exploited via large image titles and cause the
execution of arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.17.0-11woody2.
