CVE-2025-32428 is a security vulnerability found in Jupyter Remote Desktop Proxy, a Jupyter extension that allows users to run a Linux desktop within a Jupyter notebook. The vulnerability occurs when the extension is used with TigerVNC. The problem is that when configured with TigerVNC, the VNC server inadvertently opens a TCP network port, allowing external network access, even though it was intended to be restricted to a UNIX socket accessible only to the current user. This vulnerability does not affect users who use TurboVNC.

Description: Jupyter Remote Desktop Proxy allows you to run a Linux Desktop on a JupyterHub. jupyter-remote-desktop-proxy was meant to rely on UNIX sockets readable only by the current user since version 3.0.0, but when used with TigerVNC, the VNC server started by jupyter-remote-desktop-proxy were still accessible via the network. This vulnerability does not affect users having TurboVNC as the vncserver executable. This issue is fixed in 3.0.1.
