Title: DataWizard FtpXQ Privileged Default Account Permissions Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
FtpXQ is a ftp daemon designed to provide ftp services for Microsoft Operating Systems. The software package has been written for Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000. It is maintained and distributed by Datawizard Technologies.
Two default accounts exist, anonymous (no password required) and test (password = test), both by default have read and write permissions to the drive c:\.
This makes it possible for a malicious user with access to the ftp server to gain access to sensitive information, including password files stored on the server. In addition, having write permissions could make it possible for a user jeopardize the integrity of the host system.
Affected Products:
- DataWizard FtpXQ 2.0.0
- DataWizard FtpXQ 2.1.0
