Problem Description The wu-ftp FTP server does not do proper bounds checking while processing the SITE EXEC command. 2. Impact An remote attacker could execute arbitrary machine code as root on a FTP server using wu-ftpd. This bug could only be exploited if anonymous access to the FTP server is allowed. 3. Solution We recommend using our audited 2.4er version of wu-ftpd.
