Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.59%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in multiple functions in vncviewer/FileTransfer.cpp in vncviewer for UltraVNC 1.0.2 and 1.0.4 before 01252008, when in LISTENING mode or when using the DSM plugin, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified parameters, a different issue than CVE-2008-0610.
