Description:
r0ut3r has discovered a vulnerability in GoodTech SSH Server, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing overly long strings passed as arguments to e.g. the SFTP "open", "opendir", and "unlink" commands, and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 6.4. Other versions may also be affected.
