Chicken of the VNC (cotv) 2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large computer-name size value in a ServerInit packet, which triggers a failed malloc and a resulting NULL dereference.

Chicken of the VNC (cotv) 2.0 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (cierre de aplicación) mediante un valor de tamaño de nombre muy grande en un paquete ServerInit, lo cual dispara un malloc fallido y la referencia a NULL resultante.
