Currently unrated
What is CVE-2001-1338?
The IPC@CHIP TelnetD server produced by Beck IPC GmbH is vulnerable due to its inconsistent handling of login requests. It generates different responses based on valid versus invalid login names, which can be exploited by remote attackers. This behavior enables malicious actors to identify existing accounts on the system, thereby posing a significant risk to system security. Proper mitigation strategies should be implemented to prevent unauthorized access and ensure the integrity of user credentials.
