Argument injection vulnerability in the telnet daemon (in.telnetd) in Solaris 10 and 11 (SunOS 5.10 and 5.11) misinterprets certain client "-f" sequences as valid requests for the login program to skip authentication, which allows remote attackers to log into certain accounts, as demonstrated by the bin account.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2007-0882 lets a remote Telnet client cause Solaris telnetd to treat crafted option-like input as a request to skip login authentication. If Telnet is exposed, an attacker may access certain local accounts without valid credentials. This is a legacy but severe exposure where Solaris Telnet remains reachable. Most likely exposure is Solaris 10 or Solaris 11 systems running the Telnet daemon and accepting network connections. Internet-facing Telnet, management networks, and older internal UNIX estates are the highest-priority places to check. Treat reachable Solaris Telnet as urgent. The business risk is unauthorized system access without credentials. Even if assets are legacy, exposure should be eliminated or tightly isolated before routine maintenance work. Mitigation focus: Identify Solaris systems with Telnet service enabled or reachable.; Disable Telnet where operationally possible, especially on exposed interfaces.; Restrict Telnet access at network controls until vendor guidance is applied..
