CVE ID         : CVE-2019-15681
Debian Bug     : 943793


LibVNC contained a memory leak (CWE-655) in VNC server code, which
allowed an attacker to read stack memory and could be abused for
information disclosure.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
0.9.9+dfsg2-6.1+deb8u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your libvncserver packages.
