NEUROCOM: Nashuatec D445/435 vulnerabilities updated

Hi,

my last message concerning three commons vulnerabilities on Nashuatec printers model D445 is also available for the 
D435 series.

These two models of printers are vulnerables to:

1- ftp bounce attack 
2- adm web server cgi buffer overflow ( eg: reset )
3- (icmp redirect storm) denial of service attack

now a little update (about the two series):

4- By default, a "guest" account (password guest) allow everybody to authenticate himself to the telnet service. That's 
not exactly what we should call a security hole since everybody can connect to the web server with exactly the same 
priviledge and without any needed authentication.

5- the telnetd daemon no longer listen on its port after only one syn stealth scan (try nmap "-sS" option).This 
behavior suggest that this version of telnetd is unable to manage simultaneous connection requests resulting in a 
possible denial of service attack.

Have a nice day
