    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

     <http://www.goodtechsys.com/telnetnt2000.asp> Telnet Server for Windows
    NT/2000/XP "turns a Windows NT/2000/XP system into a multi-user Telnet
    server". The program does not check the strings passed to it as input,
    this allows a remote attacker to crash the server by sending the server a
    long string.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable systems:
     * GoodTech Systems Telnet Server version 4.0.103

    Immune systems:
     * GoodTech Systems Telnet Server version 4.0.104

    Exploit:
    To test the vulnerability simply send a big string to the telnet server,
    perl -e 'print "a"x8245' | nc server 23

    Alternatively, a string like:
    aaaa[..a..]aa ( 8245 of a )
