Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in ArGoSoft FTP Server, which can be exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling input supplied to the "XCWD" FTP command. This can be exploited by supplying an overly long argument (more than 4096 characters), which causes a buffer overflow.
Successful exploitation has been reported to crash the service. However, execution of arbitrary code may potentially also be possible, though this has not been confirmed.
