Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.801617
Category:FTP
Title:pyftpdlib FTP Server Multiple Vulnerabilities
Summary:pyftpdlib FTP server is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
pyftpdlib FTP server is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple flaws exist because pyftpdlib,

- allows remote authenticated users to access arbitrary files and directories
via a .. (dot dot) in a LIST, STOR, or RETR command.

- does not increment the attempted_logins count for a USER command that
specifies an invalid username, which makes it easier for remote attackers
to obtain access via a brute-force attack.

- allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long command.

- does not limit the number of attempts to discover a unique filename, which
might allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service via
a STOU command.

- does not prevent TCP connections to privileged ports if the destination IP
address matches the source IP address of the connection from the FTP client,
which might allow remote authenticated users to conduct FTP bounce attacks
via crafted FTP data.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation will allow attacker to retrieve or upload arbitrary
system files or cause a denial of service.

Affected Software/OS:
ftpserver.py in pyftpdlib before 0.2.0

Solution:
Upgrade to pyftpdlib version 0.5.2 or later.

CVSS Score:
7.5
