Title: PlatinumFTPserver Denial Of Service Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
PlatinumFTPserver is a FTP server available for Microsoft Windows operating systems.
It has been reported that PlatinumFTPserver fails to properly sanitize FTP commands. By sending a malicious request to the vulnerable server, using directory traversal sequences, it is possible for a remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by using ' @/..@/..' sequences in conjunction with the CD FTP command to cause a denial of service.
Restarting the vulnerable service will be necessary to restore functionality.
It has been reported that this issue is still present in versions 1.0.10 and 1.0.11.
