Vulnerability Insight:
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 which allows users to connect to other desktops running a VNC
server. FLTK (pronounced 'fulltick') is a cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit. It
provides modern GUI functionality without the bloat, and supports 3D graphics
via OpenGL and its built-in GLUT emulation. The following packages have been
upgraded to a later upstream version: tigervnc (1.8.0), fltk (1.3.4).
(BZ#1388620, BZ#1413598) 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 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)
