Now compare telnet: always vulnerable, all the time, since the day it was created, before most of the people on this list were born:
Technically, you can run kerberized (krb5) telnet/telnetd, and it's not quite as insecure as unkerberized telnet. The telnet protocol supports security measures, but most people just use OpenSSH (which can do a lot more) so there's little effort being made to widely use it.
I doubt the OP was setting up krb5 telnetd, though.
