    Quoting the Cisco Advisory:

    "A specifically crafted Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
    connection to a telnet or reverse telnet port of a Cisco device
    running Internetwork Operating System (IOS) may block further
    telnet, reverse telnet, Remote Shell (RSH), Secure Shell (SSH),
    and in some cases Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP) access to
    the Cisco device. Telnet, reverse telnet, RSH and SSH sessions
    established prior to exploitation are not affected."

    "This vulnerability affects all Cisco devices that permit access
    via telnet or reverse telnet and are running an unfixed version of
    IOS."
