Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in UltraVNC, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or take complete control of an affected system. These issues are caused by buffer overflow errors in the "vncviewer/FileTransfer.cpp" file when processing malformed data while running vncviewer in "LISTENING" mode or when connecting to a malicious server, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable viewer or execute arbitrary code.
