Discussion

Cooolsoft PowerFTP Server Path Disclosure Vulnerability

PowerFTP is a commercial FTP server for Microsoft Windows 9x/ME/NT/2000/XP operating systems. It is maintained by Cooolsoft.

PowerFTP discloses absolute path information when a FTP user issues a PWD command.

This information may be used to aid in further "intelligent" attacks against the host running the vulnerable FTP server.
