Title: 3Com 3CDaemon Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
3CDaemon is an FTP server developed by Dan Gill of 3Com.
Reportedly, it is possible to initiate a buffer overflow on a host running 3CDaemon.
Submitting a large amount of data (at least 400 chars) at the login prompt could trigger a stack-based overflow condition.
This overflow could overwrite stack variables, including the return address, and be used to execute arbitrary code. However, sending random data could cause the application to crash.
Affected Products:
- 3Com 3CDaemon 2.0.0 revision 10
