Discussion

Gene6 FTP Server Multiple Commands Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Gene6 FTP Server is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities when handling data through various commands.

Reportedly, passing excessive data may overflow a finite-sized internal memory buffer. A successful attack may result in memory corruption as memory adjacent to the buffer is overwritten with user-supplied data.

These issues may lead to a denial-of-service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.

This issue is reported to affect version 3.1.0; other versions may also be vulnerable.
