> Within the file descriptor implementation of {{guac_socket}} (and possibly elsewhere), the call to {{send()}} or {{write()}} uses the pointer which always points to the beginning of the buffer, rather than the pointer which is updated as chunks are written:
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-guacamole-server/blob/770a2805e4936aa73f17277a7ec6a762fdcc671a/src/libguac/socket-fd.c#L92-L118
> This will result in duplicate data being written if the first write does not succeed in writing absolutely everything, most likely resulting in invalid protocol data and a disconnect.
> Based on the fact that Guacamole works ... it seems this is rather unlikely in practice, but it should be fixed.
