Discussion
Jarle Aase War FTPD USER/PASS Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
War FTPD is reported prone to multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities. The issues present themselves due to a lack of sufficient boundary checks performed on data that is passed to the server as values for the USER and PASS commands.
A remote attacker may potentially exploit these issues pre-authentication to have arbitrary code executed in the context of the affected FTP server.
