TITLE

WS_FTP Server Vulnerable to buffer overflow

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2006-002167

DESCRIPTION

Multiple buffer overflows in WS_FTP Server 5.05 before Hotfix 1, and possibly other versions down to 5.0, have unknown impact and remote authenticated attack vectors via the (1) XCRC, (2) XMD5, and (3) XSHA1 commands. NOTE: in the early publication of this identifier on 20060926, the description was used for the wrong issue. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Ipswitch WS_FTP Server. Anonymous access or authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.The specific flaw exists due to a lack of bounds checking during the parsing of long string arguments to the 'XCRC', 'XSHA1' and 'XMD5' commands leading to a stack overflow vulnerability. Exploitation requires valid or anonymous FTP server credentials. Ipswitch WS_FTP Server is prone to a number of stack-overflow vulnerabilities. Updates are available. A successful exploit may lead to remote arbitrary code execution with administrative privileges, facilitating the complete compromise of affected computers. Ipswitch WS_FTP Server 5.04 and 5.05 are vulnerable to these issues; other versions may also be affected. Ipswitch WS_FTP Server is an FTP service program suitable for Windows systems. The exploitation of the vulnerability requires the user to log in to the system with a legal account, but No writable directory is required.
