The SLES security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for SLES:15.0.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tigervnc-x11vnc package and not the tigervnc-x11vnc package as distributed by SLES.
TigerVNC version prior to 1.10.1 is vulnerable to stack use-after-return, which occurs due to incorrect usage of stack memory in ZRLEDecoder. If decoding routine would throw an exception, ZRLEDecoder may try to access stack variable, which has been already freed during the process of stack unwinding. Exploitation of this vulnerability could potentially result into remote code execution. This attack appear to be exploitable via network connectivity.
