telnetd for netkit 0.17 and earlier, and possibly other versions, on Debian GNU/Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (free of an invalid pointer), a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0554.

Buffer overflow in BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.
