Description: A vulnerability was reported in SecureCRT. A remote user may be able to cause the target user to execute arbitrary scripting commands in certain cases.
Security-Assessment.com reported that a remote user can create a specially crafted telnet URL to specify an alternate directory for the configuration file (e.g., on an SMB share). The alternate configuration can specify the execution of scripting commands as part of a logon script.
The original advisory is available at:

Impact: A remote user can create a URL that, when loaded by the target user, will cause SecureCRT to execute arbitrary scripting commands.
Solution: The vendor has issued a fix, available at:
