+        <p>Neat VNC is a liberally licensed VNC server library that&#39;s intended to be fast and neat.</p>
+    </background>
+    <description>
+        <p>Neat VNC allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a request in which the client specifies an insecure security type such as &#34;Type 1 - None&#34;, which is accepted even if it is not offered by the server, as originally demonstrated using a long password.</p>

+    <impact type="high">
+        <p>A remote attacker can opt not to use any authentication method and access the VNC server.</p>

+        <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+    </workaround>
