LIN1018-9713 : Security Advisory - inetutils - CVE-2022-39028

Created: Sep 3, 2022    Updated: Sep 21, 2022

Found In Version: 10.18.44.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 18
Component/s: Userspace

Description

telnetd in GNU Inetutils through 2.3, MIT krb5-appl through 1.0.3, and derivative works has a NULL pointer dereference via 0xff 0xf7 or 0xff 0xf8. In a typical installation, the telnetd application would crash but the telnet service would remain available through inetd. However, if the telnetd application has many crashes within a short time interval, the telnet service would become unavailable after inetd logs a "telnet/tcp server failing (looping), service terminated" error. NOTE: MIT krb5-appl is not supported upstream but is shipped by a few Linux distributions. The affected code was removed from the supported MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) product many years ago, at version 1.8.
