NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream italc package and not the italc package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the MallocFrameBuffer function in vncviewer.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier allows remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an advertisement for a large screen size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
