Description
The rfbSendFramebufferUpdate function in server/libvncserver/rfbserver.c in vino-server in Vino 2.x before 2.28.3, 2.32.x before 2.32.2, 3.0.x before 3.0.2, and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, when tight encoding is used, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via crafted dimensions in a framebuffer update request that triggers an out-of-bounds read operation.
