"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2010-240:01 advisory.
Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a remote display system which allows you 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. This package contains a client which will allow you to connect to other
desktops running a VNC server.
Fixed bugs:
CVE-2008-4770
The CMsgReader::readRect function in the VNC Viewer component in RealVNC VNC Free Edition 4.0 through
4.1.2, Enterprise Edition E4.0 through E4.4.2, and Personal Edition P4.0 through P4.4.2 allows remote VNC
servers to execute arbitrary code via crafted RFB protocol data, related to encoding type.
1398,GNOME VFS is the GNOME virtual file system. It is the foundation of the Nautilus file manager. It
provides a modular architecture and ships with several modules that implement support for file systems
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
