V-38587: The telnet-server package must not be installed.

Removing the "telnet-server" package decreases the risk of the unencrypted telnet service's accidental (or intentional) activation. Mitigation: If the telnet-server package is configured to only allow encrypted sessions, such as with Kerberos or the use of encrypted network tunnels, the risk of exposing sensitive information is mitigated.

Details: V-38587 in STIG Viewer.
