Description:
shinnai has discovered a vulnerability in WinFtp Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an off-by-one error when processing data received from the client. This can be exploited to crash the service by sending an overly long string (greater than 500 bytes) to the service.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.0.2. Other versions may also be affected.
