The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4573-1 advisory.

  - The rfbProcessClientNormalMessage function in libvncserver/rfbserver.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier     does not properly handle attempts to send a large amount of ClientCutText data, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or daemon crash) via a crafted message that is     processed by using a single unchecked malloc.

CVE-2020-14400

Byte-aligned data was accessed through uint16_t pointers in libvncserver/translate.c.

CVE-2020-14401

libvncserver/scale.c had a pixel_value integer overflow.

CVE-2020-14402

libvncserver/corre.c allowed out-of-bounds access via encodings.

CVE-2020-14403

libvncserver/hextile.c allowed out-of-bounds access via encodings.
