Details
Summary
CVE-1999-0185 is a vulnerability affecting SunOS and Solaris systems. It allows an attacker to remotely execute commands on a host by connecting to its rlogin server via an FTP data port. The FTP server acts as an intermediary, bypassing the usual security checks on the rlogin server, making the host vulnerable to unauthorized command execution. This issue can lead to significant security risks if FTP servers are not properly configured and secured. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access and perform malicious activities on the affected system. System administrators are advised to patch their systems and restrict access to rlogin servers to trusted sources.
