The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201411-03 (TigerVNC: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

Two boundary errors in TigerVNC could lead to a heap-based buffer       overflow.

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to connect to a malicious VNC       server using TigerVNC, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code       with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
