glFTPd Multiple Script ZIP File Handling Arbitrary File / Directory Access

medium Nessus Plugin ID 17245

Synopsis

The remote FTP server is suceptible to directory traversal attacks.

Description

The remote glFTPD server fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'sitenfo.sh', 'sitezpichk.sh', and 'siteziplist.sh'. An attacker could exploit this flaw to disclose arbitrary files by sending a spcially crafted request to the remote host.

Solution

Upgrade to glFTPD 2.01 RC1 or later, as this reportedly fixes the issues.
