Subject: [PATCH] vnc: sanitize bits_per_pixel from the client
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

bits_per_pixel that are less than 8 could result in accessing
non-initialized buffers later in the code due to the expectation
that bytes_per_pixel value that is used to initialize these buffers is
never zero.

To fix this check that bits_per_pixel from the client is one of the
values that the rfb protocol specification allows.

This is CVE-2014-7815.
