[GLSA-200504-01] telnet-bsd: Multiple buffer overflows |
||
telnet-bsd: Multiple buffer overflows Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200504-01 (telnet-bsd: Multiple buffer overflows) A buffer overflow has been identified in the env_opt_add() function of telnet-bsd, where a response requiring excessive escaping can cause a heap-based buffer overflow. Another issue has been identified in the slc_add_reply() function, where a large number of SLC commands can overflow a fixed size buffer. Impact Successful exploitation would require a vulnerable user to connect to a possible hacker-controlled host using telnet, potentially executing arbitrary code with the permissions of the telnet user. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
