That's both true and expected.

The x2goserver scripts (for instance x2golistsessions) call a setuid/setgid
binary called libx2go-server-db-sqlite3-wrapper (nightlies) or x2gosqlitewrapper
(release version.)

They should reside in /usr/lib/x2go/.

Due to that the session DB can be read even as a user.

Are these binaries not correctly installed on your system?
