I am almost certain no one has ever said "this attack vector was outside of penetration testing scope due to being rooted in the telnet protocol itself."

It's actually a lie that the flaw is in the protocol. The vulnerability is in the implementation, and the proper method has been documented, they are just incompetent. Mtgox made the same excuse

Incompetence, or a scam by the SR2 team? EDIT: Interesting comment at the bottom of that article: > The author’s mistake is thinking that it is a fellow freedom fighter and not the state that is engaged in the malicious activity. Only a few years ago I might have dismissed that sort of thinking as conspiracist paranoia. Funny how much my perspective on the world has changed.
