      Nortel Networks Wireless LAN Access Point 2200 DoS
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    A vulnerability in the WLAN 2200 Wireless Access Point allows a remote
    user to crash the AP via a telnet session, this by sending it an overly
    long buffer after the telnet connection is initiated.

    DETAILS

    Exploit:
    /* WLAN-DoS.c
     *
     * Nortel Networks Wireless LAN Access Point 2200 DoS + PoC
     * discovered by Alex Hernandez.
     *
     * Copyright (C) 2004 Alex Hernandez.
     *
     * A successful attack on a vulnerable server can cause the AP
     * (Access Point) listener to fail and crash. The port 23 (telnet)
     * functionality cannot be restored until the listener is manually
    restarted.
     *
     * LAN AP 2200 permits client-server communication across any network.
     * LAN enables by default the port 23 (telnet) and port (80) for
    administering.
     * Debugging features are enabled by default, if LAN AP encounters such a
    request,
     * it will crash and no longer field AP requests from authorized clients.
     *
     * Simple lame code by
     *
