CVE-2026-109833

A flaw was found in gnome-remote-desktop as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Published Oct 13, 2026 · updated Oct 15, 2026

A flaw was found in gnome-remote-desktop as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. In the VNC TLS read path, partial consumption of the internal peek buffer incorrectly moves remaining peeked bytes into the caller-supplied buffer instead of compacting the peek buffer. A remote attacker who can reach an enabled VNC TLS listener and trigger a peek/read size mismatch can cause an out-of-bounds write, leading to denial of service.
