TITLE

Home FTP Server  directory traversal vulnerability in

DESCRIPTION

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Home FTP Server 1.10.1.139 allow remote authenticated users to (1) create arbitrary directories via directory traversal sequences in an MKD command or (2) create files with any contents in arbitrary directories via directory traversal sequences in a file upload request. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information. Home Ftp Server is an easy to use FTP server. Home FTP Server does not properly filter the input provided by the user in the MKD command. The authenticated user can create a directory outside the FTP root directory by following the steps below: 1.sock.connect((hostname, 21))2.sock. Send(\"user %s\" %username)3.sock.send(\"pass %s\" %passwd)4.sock.send(\"MKD ../A\")5.sock.close(). Successful exploits will allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?
