---------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
