CVE-2005-0468

Publication date 2 May 2005

Last updated 24 July 2024


Ubuntu priority

Heap-based buffer overflow in the env_opt_add function in telnet.c for various BSD-based Telnet clients allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via responses that contain a large number of characters that require escaping, which consumers more memory than allocated.
