Defined in:

Overview

A bit of information about the DES algorithm was found here: www.vidarholen.net/contents/junk/vnc.html

In addition, VNC uses two individual 8 byte block encryptions rather than using any block mode (like cbc, ecb, etc).

.decrypt(cipher, password = "\x17\x52\x6b\x06\x23\x4e\x58\x07") ⇒ Object

NOTE: The default password is that of winvnc/etc which is used for encrypting the password(s) on disk/in registry.
