CVE-2001-0150: Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier executes Telnet sessions using command line arguments that are specified...

Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier executes Telnet sessions using command line arguments that are specified by the web site, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands if the IE client is using the Telnet client provided in Services for Unix (SFU) 2.0, which creates session transcripts.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A malicious website could make legacy Internet Explorer 5.5 or earlier launch Telnet with site-controlled arguments. The reported risk applies when the client uses the Telnet client from Services for Unix 2.0. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, confirmed exploitation, or detailed affected-product metadata. Exposure is likely limited to obsolete Windows environments running Internet Explorer 5.5 or earlier with Microsoft Services for Unix 2.0 Telnet client installed and reachable through browser-driven Telnet handling. Treat this as a legacy-technology risk. It is serious in affected environments because arbitrary command execution is cited, but urgency depends on whether obsolete IE and SFU 2.0 are still present. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft MS01-015 for vendor-approved fixes or mitigations.; Inventory systems with Internet Explorer 5.5 or earlier.; Identify endpoints with Services for Unix 2.0 Telnet client installed..
