Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported a vulnerability in Core FTP, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error when downloading directories containing files with directory traversal specifiers in the filename. This can be exploited to download files to an arbitrary location on a user's system.
