Package: ckermit Version: 211-7 Severity: normal The kermit server, iksd, allows remote users to identify valid accounts on the system with minimal effort. Telnet to the iksd port, and enter a username. If the username exists, then a password prompt is displayed. If it doesn't, then an authentication failure is returned immediately. This makes it trivial to find out which usernames are valid on the remote system and which aren't.
