The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'krb4' package(s) announced via the DSA-731-1 advisory. Several problems have been discovered in telnet clients that could be exploited by malicious daemons the client connects to, including buffer overflows that allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.1-8-2.4. For the testing distribution (sarge) and the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have also been fixed. We recommend that you upgrade your krb4 packages

CAN-2005-0469
Gael Delalleau discovered a buffer overflow in the handling of the LINEMODE suboptions in telnet clients. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code when connected to a malicious server.
