TencentOS Server 3: tigervnc (TSSA-2025:0518)

high Nessus Plugin ID 241462

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 3 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0518 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2025-49175:
A flaw was found in the X Rendering extension's handling of animated cursors. If a client provides no cursors, the server assumes at least one is present, leading to an out-of-bounds read and potential crash.

CVE-2025-49176:
A flaw was found in the Big Requests extension. The request length is multiplied by 4 before checking against the maximum allowed size, potentially causing an integer overflow and bypassing the size check.

CVE-2025-49178:
A flaw was found in the X server's request handling. Non-zero 'bytes to ignore' in a client's request can cause the server to skip processing another client's request, potentially leading to a denial of service.

CVE-2025-49179:
A flaw was found in the X Record extension. The RecordSanityCheckRegisterClients function does not check for an integer overflow when computing request length, which allows a client to bypass length checks.

CVE-2025-49180:
A flaw was found in the RandR extension, where the RRChangeProviderProperty function does not properly validate input. This issue leads to an integer overflow when computing the total size to allocate.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
