"An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the MIT krb5 telnet
daemon due to a failure to sanitize malformed usernames. This allows
usernames beginning with '-e' to be interpreted as a command-line flag
by the login.krb5 program. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a
crafted username, to cause login.krb5 to execute part of the BSD
rlogin protocol, which in turn allows the attacker to login with an
arbitrary username without a password or any further authentication.");
