The Cisco Ironport WSA virtual appliances are vulnerable to an old FreeBSD telnetd encryption Key ID buffer overflow which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Cisco WSA Virtual appliances have the vulnerable telnetd daemon enabled by default.

42de8a2cf7db4d885a1b8457f558eaa5bf8b942213be6c388b6bd72267ca7dfaCisco Security Advisory - Cisco IronPort Email Security Appliances (ESA) and Cisco IronPort Security Management Appliances (SMA) contain a vulnerability that may allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. Workarounds that mitigate this vulnerability are available.

26a4211c976648be259b01d70ead3c15515210a76cfa2f2e831ab504568547e8Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-1854-01 - The krb5-appl packages provide Kerberos-aware telnet, ftp, rcp, rsh, and rlogin clients and servers. Kerberos is a network authentication system which allows clients and servers to authenticate to each other using symmetric encryption and a trusted third-party, the Key Distribution Center. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the MIT krb5 telnet daemon. A remote attacker who can access the telnet port of a target machine could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code as root. Note that the krb5 telnet daemon is not enabled by default in any version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. In addition, the default firewall rules block remote access to the telnet port. This flaw does not affect the telnet daemon distributed in the telnet-server package.

The flaw does not require authentication to exploit. Exploit code is reported to be actively used in the wild.
94f4852b4ef0d480fd44f6fff8a1a449daff42441b00c788d6970db82695afc2Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2011-195 - A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in krb5-appl, heimdal and netkit-telnet. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a buffer overflow and probably execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the telnet daemon. In Mandriva the telnetd daemon from the netkit-telnet-server package does not have an initscript to start and stop the service, however one could rather easily craft an initscript or start the service by other means rendering the system vulnerable to this issue. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
088c8d790f512be759b35321724ad47890342945dbacb0e3d9083cc426187e2cThis Metasploit module exploits a buffer overflow in the encryption option handler of the Linux BSD-derived telnet service (inetutils or krb5-telnet). Most Linux distributions use NetKit-derived telnet daemons, so this flaw only applies to a small subset of Linux systems running telnetd.

5c027aef49c6a33044ddd945cfc6d9db2dfdaac94f49b241b9d556902a49848aFreeBSD Security Advisory - When an encryption key is supplied via the TELNET protocol, its length is not validated before the key is copied into a fixed-size buffer. An attacker who can connect to the telnetd daemon can execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the daemon (which is usually the "root" superuser).
