3. Description:
Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a remote display system which allows
users to view a computing desktop environment not only on the machine where
it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of
machine architectures. TigerVNC is a suite of VNC servers and clients. The
tigervnc packages contain a client which allows users to connect to other
desktops running a VNC server.
Security Fix(es):
* A denial of service flaw was found in the TigerVNC’s Xvnc server. A
remote unauthenticated attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by
terminating the TLS handshake process early. (CVE-2016-10207)
* A buffer overflow flaw, leading to memory corruption, was found in
TigerVNC viewer. A remote malicious VNC server could use this flaw to crash
the client vncviewer process resulting in denial of service.
(CVE-2017-5581)
