Description

Two vulnerabilities have been reported in TigerVNC, which can be exploited by malicious people to 
potentially compromise a user's system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to two boundary errors in the "ZRLE_DECODE()" function 
(common/rfb/zrleDecode.h), which can be exploited to cause buffer overflows.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but requires tricking a user into 
connecting to a malicious VNC server.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.3.1.


Solution:
Update to version 1.3.1.

Provided and/or discovered by:
Reported by the vendor.

Original Advisory:
http://sourceforge.net/p/tigervnc/mailman/message/32120476/


@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
