Bug 89861 – app-crypt/heimdal: telnet vulnerabilities (CAN-2005-0469)

• Product: Gentoo Security

2005-04-20: telnet vulnerabilities

The telnet client program in Heimdal has buffer overflows in the functions slc_add_reply() and env_opt_add(), which may lead to remote code execution.

0.6.4 fixes this problem.

The only workaround for this bug is to not use the telnet client.

bumped to 0.6.4 in portage, and stabled on amd64.  I will also test and stable on x86, but the rest of the arch teams need to do it respectively.
