Description:
A vulnerability identified in Hyperion FTP Server can potentially be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused by a boundary error. A malicious person can exploit the this by establishing a connection to the FTP server and supply a specially crafted 931 bytes long command.

An example was included in the original advisory:
telnet <server> 21
A * 931

Successful exploitation causes a buffer overflow, which potentially can be exploited by a non-authenticated person to execute arbitrary code on the system with the FTP server's permissions.
