How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:6 tigervnc-server.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tigervnc-server package and not the tigervnc-server package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

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.
