<title>telnet-bsd: Multiple buffer overflows</title>
|
|
<synopsis>
|
|
The telnet-bsd telnet client is vulnerable to two buffer overflows, which
|
|
could allow a malicious telnet server operator to execute arbitrary code.

telnet-bsd provides a command line telnet client which is used for
|
|
remote login using the telnet protocol.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
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.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Successful exploitation would require a vulnerable user to connect
|
|
to an attacker-controlled host using telnet, potentially executing
|
|
arbitrary code with the permissions of the telnet user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All telnet-bsd users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/telnet-bsd-1.0-r1"</code>
