Vulnerabilities

FTPShell Server 6.83 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string in the account name field. Attackers can trigger a denial of service by pasting a 417-byte payload into the 'Account name to ban' parameter within the Manage FTP Accounts interface.

FTP Shell Server 6.83 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the 'Account name to ban' field that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a crafted string. Attackers can inject shellcode through the account name parameter in the Manage FTP Accounts dialog to overwrite the return address and execute calc.exe or other commands.

A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Virtual Path Mapping component of FTPShell v6.83 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (DoS).

An issue was discovered in FTPShell Client 6.7. A remote FTP server can send 400 characters of 'F' in conjunction with the FTP 220 response code to crash the application; after this overflow, one can run arbitrary code on the victim machine. This is similar to CVE-2009-3364 and CVE-2017-6465.

Remote Code Execution was discovered in FTPShell Client 6.53. By default, the client sends a PWD command to the FTP server it is connecting to; however, it doesn't check the response's length, leading to a buffer overflow situation.
