TightVNC before v2.8.75 allows attackers to escalate privileges on the host operating system via replacing legitimate files with crafted files when executing a file transfer. This is due to the fact that TightVNC runs in the backend as a high-privileges account.

CriticalCVSS 9.8 EPSS 6.1%
An issue was discovered in LibVNCServer through 0.9.11. rfbProcessClientNormalMessage() in rfbserver.c does not sanitize msg.cct.length, leading to access to uninitialized and potentially sensitive data or possibly unspecified other impact (e.g., an integer overflow) via speciall...

MediumCVSS 5.0 EPSS 7.3%
The rfbProcessClientNormalMessage function in libvncserver/rfbserver.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier does not properly handle attempts to send a large amount of ClientCutText data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or daemon crash)...

HighCVSS 10.0 EPSS 13.3% PoC
Multiple integer signedness errors in (1) UltraVNC 1.0.2 and 1.0.5 and (2) TightVnc 1.3.9 allow remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service (heap corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a large length value in a message, related to the (a) Cli...

HighCVSS 7.5 EPSS 2.4%
TightVNC before 1.2.6 generates the same challenge string for multiple connections, which allows remote attackers to bypass VNC authentication by sniffing the challenge and response of other users.
