Summary
CVE-2023-47251 is a directory traversal vulnerability affecting versions of mprivacy-tools before 2.0.406g, specifically the TightGate-Pro Server's VNC service. Authenticated attackers with access to a VNC session can exploit this issue by moving malicious PDF files into the .spool directory, which is then automatically transferred to the connected VNC client's filesystem.
