Bigeazer has discovered a vulnerability in FileCOPA, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the handling of the argument passed to the "USER" command. This can be exploited to cause a stack overflow via a large number of newline characters passed as argument to the command.

Successful exploitation crashes the FTP service.
