CVE has been marked "REJECT" in the CVE List. These CVEs are stored in the NVD, but do not show up in search results.
Current Description
Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2019-15679. Reason: This candidate is a duplicate of CVE-2019-15679. Notes: All CVE users should reference CVE-2019-15679 instead of this candidate. All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental usage.
In TightVNC 1.3.10, there is an integer signedness error and resultant heap-based buffer overflow in InitialiseRFBConnection in rfbproto.c (for the vncviewer component). There is no check on the size given to malloc, e.g., -1 is accepted. This allocates a chunk of size zero, which will give a heap pointer. However, one can send 0xffffffff bytes of data, which can have a DoS impact or lead to remote code execution.
