- CAN-2005-0469: A buffer overflow in the LINEMODE suboption command SLC can be exploited by a malicious server to execute arbitrary code on the client site with the privileges of the user running telnet.
- CAN-2005-0468: Another buffer overflow can be exploited remotely via a malicious server by sending environment variables to the client. The result of this bug is arbitrary code execution too. Note that this bug can also be exploited by clicking on a URL link that uses
telnet://
as protocol and points to a server controlled by an attacker.
