Ludwig Nussel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> discovered that libvncserver has
the same authentication bypass as realvnc (in CVE-2006-2369), although
it's completely different code. 

This has been fixed by upstream:

 
http://libvncserver.cvs.sourceforge.net/libvncserver/libvncserver/libvncserver/auth.c?r1=1.11&r2=1.14&diff_format=u

Please see the original realvnc CVE for more information:

For libvncserver, this has been assigned CVE-2006-2450. Please
mention this number in the changelog when you fix this.

Please also coordinate with [EMAIL PROTECTED] for a stable-security
update.

Thank you!

Martin
