[hylafax-devel] Broken access control?




Folks,

Is current HylaFAX really this broken?? Has it always been?

[darren@hewes darren]$ faxstat -v -s -h roam.dazza.org 
Trying roam.dazza.org (209.166.32.51) at port 4559...
Connected to roam.dazza.org.
220 roam.dazza.org server (HylaFAX (tm) Version 4.1beta2) ready.

normal.

[darren@hewes darren]$ telnet roam.dazza.org 4559

hello stuff
500 HELLO: Command not recognized.
quit
221 Goodbye.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Um, a little more permissive than I had hoped for. Arguably every connection 
to this port should be mediated via hosts.hfaxd, no?

Looks like a security issue to address with some urgency to me.
