Description:
securfrog has discovered a vulnerability in WS_FTP Home and Professional, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a format string error when processing responses of the FTP server. This can be exploited by e.g. tricking a user into connecting to a malicious FTP server.
Successful exploitation may allow the execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in WS_FTP Home version 2007.0.0.2 and WS_FTP Professional version 2007.1.0.0. Other versions may also be affected.
