Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-229
Posted Nov 27, 2014
Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2014-229 - A malicious VNC server can trigger incorrect memory management handling by advertising a large screen size parameter to the VNC client. This would result in multiple memory corruptions and could allow remote code execution on the VNC client. A malicious VNC client can trigger multiple DoS conditions on the VNC server by advertising a large screen size, ClientCutText message length and/or a zero scaling factor parameter. A malicious VNC client can trigger multiple stack-based buffer overflows by passing a long file and directory names and/or attributes when using the file transfer message feature. Additionally libvncserver has been built against the new system minilzo library which is also being provided with this advisory.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2014:229
http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : libvncserver
Date : November 26, 2014
Affected: Business Server 1.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Updated libvncserver packages fix security vulnerabilities:

A malicious VNC server can trigger incorrect memory management handling
by advertising a large screen size parameter to the VNC client. This
would result in multiple memory corruptions and could allow remote
code execution on the VNC client (CVE-2014-6051, CVE-2014-6052).

A malicious VNC client can trigger multiple DoS conditions on the VNC
server by advertising a large screen size, ClientCutText message length
and/or a zero scaling factor parameter (CVE-2014-6053, CVE-2014-6054).

A malicious VNC client can trigger multiple stack-based buffer
overflows by passing a long file and directory names and/or
attributes (FileTime) when using the file transfer message feature
(CVE-2014-6055).

Additionally libvncserver has been built against the new system
minilzo library which is also being provided with this advisory.
