Which one? AFAICT there are three authentication methods, one of which is 
not secure at all. Another one is no vnc authentication at all, but rather 
an ssh authentication. The third method does not encrypt the rest of the 
protocol, so is not secure. (And yes, there exists a fourth method, which 
appears to be purely VNC, but which is not open source.)

P.S.: I forgot to mention that your patch is not in unified format, which 
seems to be the preferred patch format on this list.
