--- Begin Message ---Package: directvnc Version: 0.7.8-1 Severity: normal man 1 directvnc: -p, --password password string to be passed to the server for authentication. Use this with care! OK, so what's care? Well, the password is available for all system users and crackers to view with just `ps faux | grep directvnc`. But what if there was a way to supply the password through a file, like on all other vnc servers? Looking at the documentation, I can't see any such way to provide the password through a file. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable'), (5, 'testing'), (2, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.5.0-0.deb12.4-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages directvnc depends on: ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u4 ii libdirectfb-1.7-7 1.7.7-11 pn libdirectfb-1.7-7t64 <none> ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:2.1.5-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.13.dfsg-1 Versions of packages directvnc recommends: ii x11proto-core-dev 2022.1-1 ii x11proto-dev [x11proto-core-dev] 2022.1-1 directvnc suggests no packages.
