Ipswitch WS_FTP Long Site Command Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Ipswitch WS_FTP Long Site Command Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Ipswitch WS_FTP is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM-level privileges. Successfully exploiting this issue will result in the complete compromise of affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service.

This issue affects version 5.05; other versions may also be affected.
