Descriptions

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.

Múltiples desbordamientos de búfer en WS_FTP Server 5.05 anterior a Hotfix 1, y posiblemente otras versiones anteriores a la 5.0, tienen impacto y vectores de ataque remotos autenticados desconocidos mediante los comandos (1) XCRC, (2) XMD5, y (3) XSHA1. NOTA: en la publicación anterior de este identificador en 26/09/2006, la descripción fue usada por el asunto equivocado.

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.
