"Timbuktu" is a remote administration suite that is 
available for MacOS and Windows operating 
systems. 

Timbuktu utilizes a range of ports between (1417 - 
1420).  There exist a Denial of Service vulnerability 
that will crash all timbuktu services running. 

To exploit this all you must do is choose one of the 
Timbuktu ports that are open and make a large 
number of connections to it and if you keep a watch 
you will see that all the Timbuktu ports available will 
close one by one.

If your admin doesn't mind try this against the 
machine using timbuktu :

#!/bin/sh

while:
do

        telnet tb2.host.com 1417 &

done


This will cause the timbuktu services to die out.
