Title: Marconi ForeThought 7.1 Telnet Administration Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
ForeThought is the internetworking software used by most of Marconi's product line. The software incorporates remote administration through telnet and web console interfaces.
The telnet administration interface allows up to two concurrent sessions. When both sessions are locked, the only way to release the sessions is to reboot the device. Until the device is rebooted, access to the telnet interface is not possible.
It has been reported that some port scans may unintentionally trigger this condition.
Affected Products:
- Marconi ForeThought 7.2.0
