Question: why would you run this?

  To hack a gibson, baby.

  Research. Ever wonder how many telnet servers are exposed to the internet (hint: way too many)?
  • ansible 5y ago
    I wonder how many of those are just MUDs (text-mode dungeon games) where it was common to use telnet.
    • prox 5y ago
      Those would be running for a while now then
    • loeg 5y ago
      MUDs usually run on a non-standard port (not 23).

  I did a CTF a while back and it was used to find the real IP of a missconfigured .onion site. I didn't actually do it as I was worried about burning a VPS provider.

  My ISP had a misconfiguration that let all the customers ping each other (Routers usually). The address space was too large to scan any other way except masscan, which worked very well (and fast). https://medium.com/@captn3m0/i-scanned-all-of-act-bangalore-customers-and-the-results-arent-surprising-fecf9d7fe775 https://medium.com/@captn3m0/i-scanned-all-of-act-bangalore-...
