+  <title>LibVNCServer: Authentication bypass</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    VNC servers created with LibVNCServer accept insecure protocol types, even
+    when the server does not offer it, resulting in unauthorized access to the
+    server.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    LibVNCServer is a GPL'ed library for creating VNC servers.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    LibVNCServer fails to properly validate protocol types effectively
+    letting users decide what protocol to use, such as "Type 1 - None".
+    LibVNCServer will accept this security type, even if it is not offered
+    by the server.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could use this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access
+    with the privileges of the user running the VNC server.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All LibVNCServer users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-libs/libvncserver-0.8.2"</code>
