  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"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)
