Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-13 16:32:04 UTC 
C-Kermit from 7.0.197 before 11.1.515 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the IKSD SSL build that leaves Telnet authentication state at AUTH_VALID after a refused certificate login. Attackers holding a trusted certificate mapped to a refused account can log in as any other account with any password, gaining that account's shell access.
