Dear TightVNC support team,

Hello. This is Noriko Totsuka from JPCERT/CC Vulnerability
Coordination Group. We contacted you <support@glavsoft.com> 
on June 7 (Fri) JST(UTC+09:00) and June 17 to ask an appropriate 
point of contact to communicate/coordinate for #1629 
(https://sourceforge.net/p/vnc-tight/bugs/1629/).
But unfortunately, we have not received the reply.

We have received a report describing a issue found in the product
"TightVNC" from Masahiro Kawada of GMO Cybersecurity by Ierae, Inc.

Before submitting the report to us, he had contacted you via SourceForge, 
#1629, and reported/communicated/coordinated the case already, and
"Remotely accessible TightVNC password" issue had been 
already fixed and the updated version (TightVNC 2.8.84) has been released.

He submitted a report to us requesting the publication on
JVN (https://jvn.jp/en/) with CVE assigned to the issue.
We created the JVN advisory draft and attached it to this post for your review.
It is greatly appreciated if you would review it and return to us with any 
feedback/comments you may have. If you have a CVE ID for this issue, 
please let us know it in advance.

We are planning to publish the advisory on JVN at our timing, 
once we get the reply from you and everything is set and ready.
