Package: xvncviewer
Version: 3.3.3r2-4
Severity: normal

If you start xvncviewer without any parameters, it pops up a little
window in which you enter the machine you want to connect to, and then a
password.  Old versions of this used to hide your password when you
typed it in, but this does not, which is a little worrying from a
security point of view.  This may well be an upstream bug, of course.
