Descriptions

Buffer overflow in the ModifiablePixelBuffer::fillRect function in TigerVNC before 1.7.1 allows remote servers to execute arbitrary code via an RRE message with subrectangle outside framebuffer boundaries.

Desbordamiento de búfer en la función ModifiablePixelBuffer::fillRect en TigerVNC en versiones anteriores a 1.7.1 permite a servidores remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de un mensaje RRE con un subrectangulo fuera de los límites del marco del búfer.

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.
