CVE-2002-2372
The telnet server in Infoprint 21 running controller software before 1.056007 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long username, possibly due to a buffer overflow.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.79%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
