This *is* a security bug - if vino authenticated the user using free password 
area instead of a real password, an attacker might predict what will be the 
content of the freed memory area, use it as the authentication password, and 
gain unauthorized access to the VNC server, without having to guess the user 
password!
Will you please upload a security fix?
