Check Text (C-216315r959010_chk)
Determine if the X11 server system is providing remote services on the network.
# svcprop -p options/tcp_listen svc:/application/x11/x11-server
If the output of the command is "true" and network access to graphical user login is not required, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-17549r371034_fix)
The System Administrator profile is required:
Configure the X11 server for local system only graphics access.
# pfexec svccfg -s svc:/application/x11/x11-server setprop options/tcp_listen=false
