Descriptions

In Pure-FTPd before 1.0.50, an incorrect max_filesize quota mechanism in the server allows attackers to upload files of unbounded size, which may lead to denial of service or a server hang. This occurs because a certain greater-than-zero test does not anticipate an initial -1 value. (Versions 1.0.23 through 1.0.49 are affected.)

En Pure-FTPd antes de la versión 1.0.50, un mecanismo incorrecto de cuota max_filesize en el servidor permite a los atacantes subir archivos de tamaño no limitado, lo que puede llevar a la denegación de servicio o a la caída del servidor. Esto ocurre porque una determinada prueba mayor que cero no anticipa un valor inicial de -1. (Están afectadas las versiones 1.0.23 a 1.0.49)
