Disabling user permissions to run the xhost command
You can prevent the unauthorized execution of the xhost command by using the chmod command.
Another way to ensure that the xhost command
is being used appropriately is to restrict execution of this command to root-user

the permissions of /usr/bin/X11/xhost to
744, as follows:
chmod 744/usr/bin/X11/xhost
