In TigerVNC 1.7.1 (SSecurityVeNCrypt.cxx SSecurityVeNCrypt::SSecurityVeNCrypt), an unauthenticated client can cause a small memory leak in the server.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201801-13 (TigerVNC: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in TigerVNC. Please review       the referenced CVE Identifiers for details.
  Impact :

    An attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service       condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

According to the versions of the tigervnc packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - 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 double free flaw was found in the way TigerVNC     handled ClientFence messages. A remote, authenticated     attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by     sending specially crafted ClientFence messages,     resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7393)

  - A missing input sanitization flaw was found in the way     TigerVNC handled credentials. A remote unauthenticated     attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by     sending specially crafted usernames, resulting in     denial of service. (CVE-2017-7394)

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in the way TigerVNC     handled ClientCutText messages. A remote, authenticated     attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by     sending specially crafted ClientCutText messages,     resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7395)

  - 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)

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the way TigerVNC     handled termination of VeNCrypt connections. A remote     unauthenticated attacker could repeatedly send     connection requests to the Xvnc server, causing it to     consume large amounts of memory resources over time,     and ultimately leading to a denial of service due to     memory exhaustion. (CVE-2017-7392)

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the way TigerVNC     handled client connections. A remote unauthenticated     attacker could repeatedly send connection requests to     the Xvnc server, causing it to consume large amounts of     memory resources over time, and ultimately leading to a     denial of service due to memory exhaustion.
    (CVE-2017-7396)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Buffer overflow in ModifiablePixelBuffer::fillRect

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)

VNC server can crash when TLS handshake terminates early :

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)

SSecurityVeNCrypt memory leak :

A memory leak flaw was found in the way TigerVNC handled termination of VeNCrypt connections. A remote unauthenticated attacker could repeatedly send connection requests to the Xvnc server, causing it to consume large amounts of memory resources over time, and ultimately leading to a denial of service due to memory exhaustion.
(CVE-2017-7392)

Double free via crafted fences :

A double free flaw was found in the way TigerVNC handled ClientFence messages. A remote, authenticated attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by sending specially crafted ClientFence messages, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7393)

Server crash via long usernames :

A missing input sanitization flaw was found in the way TigerVNC handled credentials. A remote unauthenticated attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by sending specially crafted usernames, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7394)

Integer overflow in SMsgReader::readClientCutText :

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way TigerVNC handled ClientCutText messages. A remote, authenticated attacker could use this flaw to make Xvnc crash by sending specially crafted ClientCutText messages, resulting in denial of service.
(CVE-2017-7395)

SecurityServer and ClientServer memory leaks :

A memory leak flaw was found in the way TigerVNC handled client connections. A remote unauthenticated attacker could repeatedly send connection requests to the Xvnc server, causing it to consume large amounts of memory resources over time, and ultimately leading to a denial of service due to memory exhaustion.
