Synopsis
========

A vulnerability has been discovered in Neat VNC, which can lead to
authentication bypass.

Background
==========

Neat VNC is a liberally licensed VNC server library that's intended to
be fast and neat.

Affected packages
=================

Package Vulnerable Unaffected
---------------- ------------ ------------
gui-libs/neatvnc < 0.8.1 >= 0.8.1

Description
===========

Neat VNC allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a request
in which the client specifies an insecure security type such as "Type 1
- None", which is accepted even if it is not offered by the server, as
originally demonstrated using a long password.

Impact
======

A remote attacker can opt not to use any authentication method and
access the VNC server.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Neat VNC users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=gui-libs/neatvnc-0.8.1"

References
==========
