+  <title>netkit-telnetd: Buffer overflow</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The netkit-telnetd telnet client is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, which
+    could allow a malicious telnet server operator to execute arbitrary code.

+    netkit-telnetd provides standard Linux telnet client and server.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    A buffer overflow has been identified in the slc_add_reply()
+    function of netkit-telnetd client, where a large number of SLC commands
+    can overflow a fixed size buffer.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Successful explotation would require a vulnerable user to connect
+    to an attacker-controlled host using telnet, potentially executing
+    arbitrary code with the permissions of the telnet user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All netkit-telnetd users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/netkit-telnetd-0.17-r6"</code>
