Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
kkqq has reported a vulnerability in Serv-U FTP Server, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the handling of the "SITE CHMOD" command. This can be exploited by supplying an overly long (256 bytes) filename as argument, which causes a buffer overflow when constructing an error response.

Successful exploitation may reportedly allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability has been reported in versions prior to 5.0.
