Telnet Lockout Vulnerability in Beck GmbH IPC@Chip Service
CVE-2001-1340
Currently unrated
What is CVE-2001-1340?
The IPC@Chip TelnetD service from Beck GmbH allows only a single connection at a time and fails to properly disconnect users who do not complete the login process. This oversight can be exploited by remote attackers to lock out the administrator account by continuously connecting to the service, thereby preventing legitimate access. Security measures should be taken to rectify this vulnerability to ensure that unauthorized connections do not disrupt administrative functions.
