[SECURITY] Fedora Core 2 Update: telnet-0.17-28.FC2.1
by Harald Hoyer 30 Mar '05

30 Mar '05

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-277 2005-03-30 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : telnet Version : 0.17 Release : 28.FC2.1 Summary : The client program for the telnet remote login protocol. Description : Telnet is a popular protocol for logging into remote systems over the Internet. The telnet package provides a command line telnet client. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Two buffer overflow flaws were discovered in the way the telnet client handles messages from a server. An attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code on a victim's machine if the victim can be tricked into connecting to a malicious telnet server. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2005-0468 and CAN-2005-0469 to these issues. Red Hat would like to thank iDEFENSE for their responsible disclosure of this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Mar 17 2005 Harald Hoyer <harald(a)redhat.com> - 1:0.17-28.FC2.1 - fixed CAN-2005-468 and CAN-2005-469 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/ 24aa5985deaa986141292837ba73249b SRPMS/telnet-0.17-28.FC2.1.src.rpm 2fc2868d96e97260cfbae7f9b6557c02 x86_64/telnet-0.17-28.FC2.1.x86_64.rpm 536604c795642bdf90c1568a8c2db5a5 x86_64/telnet-server-0.17-28.FC2.1.x86_64.rpm 827d2014eacad235de5f0b7c0be5e716 x86_64/debug/telnet-debuginfo-0.17-28.FC2.1.x86_64.rpm 81b0c394c3d9fb8b852d3a847c11cf02 i386/telnet-0.17-28.FC2.1.i386.rpm d1e36e266c88b50d0e1b4f879a981786 i386/telnet-server-0.17-28.FC2.1.i386.rpm 8fd31e10878d243a4b0f6d3e3e6d3b25 i386/debug/telnet-debuginfo-0.17-28.FC2.1.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
