It was discovered that libXdmcp before 1.1.3 used weak + entropy to generate session keys on platforms without + arc4random_buf() but with getentropy(). On a multi-user system using xdmcp, a local attacker could potentially use information available from the process list to brute force the key, allowing them to hijack other users' sessions.
