What are you doing when you get the error?  Are you by any chance
using X over ssh?
A little googling found this:

"This is a result of the openssh upgrade, which adds some security
measures to X11 forwarding. The solution to ridding yourself of these
error messages is to add the line

ForwardX11Trusted yes

to your ~/.ssh/config file. X applications will then forward just
fine. If you still have trouble, make sure you don't have an
inadvertent emacs alias to emacs -nw, and if that doesn't work, use
the -Y flag to ssh."
